At Quest Diagnostics, we take the issue of subversion of the drug testing process very seriously. We continue to be pioneers in specimen validity testing (SVT) – a screening to help ensure the integrity of the urine specimen and drug test. We first patented our screening technology for oxidizing adulterants in 2000 and testified before Congress in 2005 on “Products that Claim to Prevent Detection of Certain Substances by Drug Testing Programs.” Today, we remain one of the few SAMHSA-certified laboratories capable of performing oxidizing adulterant identification.
Monkey Whizz Synthetic Urine; Another option is Monkey Whizz synthetic urine. I want to clear up the confusion here by telling you that Monkey Whizz isn’t actually the synthetic urine, it’s a product in a range of four. The actual basic synthetic urine product is called Monkey Flask, ( one bottle costs $39.95), which is the equivalent of. Clear Choice Sub Solution really and actually works and I took the test the week of April 22nd, 2019. The test I took was a Quest Diagnostics Pre-Employment - 1 and numbered (35533N) SAP 5-50/300 GC/MS. Quest Diagnostics is proud to begin testing for COVID-19. This test is to be performed only using respiratory specimens collected from individuals who meet CDC clinical and/or epidemiological criteria for COVID-19 testing. Quest Diagnostics Patient Service Centers and other phlebotomy sites cannot collect specimens for this test.
One method by which donors attempt to undermine the integrity of the drug testing process is by substituting their urine with synthetic urine. Synthetic urine is essentially water that has been fortified with various constituents such as creatinine, salts, and yellow coloring in an effort to make a specimen appear to be normal human urine and pass standard tests of specimen validity. Over time, additional chemical tests of specimen validity have been proposed and, in limited cases, used by drug testing laboratories. However, manufacturers of synthetic urine have responded by adding these additional constituents to their products in an effort to defeat these additional SVT tests.
Can synthetic urine be detected in a drug test?
Yes, Quest can detect synthetic urine using specimen validity testing, a screening that determines if a specimen is human urine. All urine drug test specimens coming into Quest Diagnostics facilities include specimen validity testing as part of the drug testing process.
Key considerations:
- It’s important to work with a drug testing provider that performs specimen validity testing in a certified laboratory. These labs are inspected on regular intervals throughout the year as well as participate in proficiency testing (PT) programs, which include challenges to the laboratory’s ability to perform routine specimen validity testing accurately. Unfortunately, the cheating industry continues to develop products and systems that may be undetectable in standard urine drug tests. As such, our scientific experts continue to monitor new generations of products and adjust accordingly.
- There is no industry consensus or regulatory standard for classifying a urine specimen as “synthetic” or “substituted” when there are abnormally low levels of these other urinary constituents.
- Professional collectors follow precise protocols and are trained to identify suspicious or unusual activities during the drug test collection process such as a urine sample that is not within the appropriate temperature range or a donor who exceeds a reasonable time limit while using the restroom. Keep in mind that urine drug testing is not directly observed collection.
- If synthetic urine can be successfully substituted for real urine in the privacy of the collection site restroom, unfortunately there is often little that can be done to prevent the substitution of real, human urine that is free of drugs and drug metabolites. Again, this reinforces the need for highly trained, professional collectors who are qualified and capable of helping to ensure a legitimate, subversion-free specimen collection experience.

Consider all drug testing specimen types
Potential subversion of the urine drug testing process is one reason that alternative specimens – hair and oral fluid – are being considered for federally-regulated drug testing programs. Urine drug testing is not directly observed; but because hair and oral fluid collections are observed, the possibility of subversion is also significantly reduced. Recent data from the Quest Diagnostics Drug Testing Index™ suggests the effectiveness of oral fluid in detecting drug use – even though it is generally acknowledged that it has a slightly shorter window of detection (depending on the drug/metabolite) – as compared to urine.
In regards to the collection of oral fluid specimens, the Proposed Federal Oral Fluid Mandatory Guidelines issued in May 2015 propose equivalent standards for oral fluid collections as urine collections (e.g., Sections 5.1, 5.2, and 8.1). While many, but not all, private sector employers “self-collect” oral fluid, this is not a uniform process and some employers prefer that oral fluid collection be separated from the hiring manager or supervisor as the proposed Federal guidelines envisage. Whether the collection is observed or not, our position is that SVT remains a critical component of the oral fluid testing process to ensure an adequate and proper collection.
In summary, technology alone cannot solve the issue of subversion of the urine drug testing process. Combining a variety of tools and tactics is the best strategy to help thwart drug test cheaters and maintain drug-free, safe, and productive workplaces. Employers should select a provider who offers multiple drug test specimen types, specimen validity testing, and collections performed by well-trained, professional collectors.

In my previous synthetic urine post I promised a Monkey Whizz review, because it’s getting more and more popular,so here you go:
When it comes to keeping your job or freedom, and avoiding that “I’m in real trouble!” feeling, if you are required to have a drugs test, then you need to know you going to stand a decent chance of passing it.
And that isn’t easy if like me you are into the odd smoke or night of partying. Which is why people make so much money out of synthetic urine products, and why people are always looking for the best fake piss for drug test.
There are several awesome brands out there like Sub Solution and Quick Fix 6.1. But I wanted to do a Monkey Whizz review because it’s another brand that seems to produce results.
So what’s the truth? Does Monkey Whizz pass or fail a drugs test?
What Is Monkey Whizz?
In terms of its construction, Monkey Whizz is much like the high quality but incredibly expensive Whizzinator. They aren’t from the same company, so don’t get confused.
Monkey Whizz is unisex, meaning it doesn’t contain a fake penis to use. You can get a Monkey Whizz “dong” kit which does allow you to do this, but the basic synthetic urine kit is unisex, coming with a tube and tap fitting.
Monkey Whizz contains:
- A 3.5oz pouch of synthetic urine
- A medical grade a elastic belt
- A high-quality syringe
- 2 x organic heat pads
- Full set of instructions
How To Use Monkey Whizz Synthetic Urine
It’s really easy to use Monkey Whizz, even in the pressure situation of a drugs test. You just need to make sure that the elastic belt fits tightly so that you don’t have it slipping around at the key moment.
I would suggest you even go as far as doing a couple of test runs before you consider wearing it in the pressure situation of a drugs test.

So all you have to do is put the urine into the belt, then open up the heat pad and stick it on to the bag, making sure it’s fitted securely between the belt and the bag so that the heat is consistent.
Then it’s a simple job to check the temperature strip before use. One of the biggest reasons people can fail a basic piss test is because the sample is at a temperature that is inconsistent with the body.
Human urine leaves the body at around 98°, and just having the monkey whizz belt around you will bring it close that, but the heat pad is specially designed to bring it up to 100°. If you activate the heat pad an hour before your drugs test, then you will give yourself the best chance of being able to give your sample at the correct temperature.
So Does Monkey Whizz Work?
No synthetic urine product can ever 100% guarantee you will pass a drugs test. Let’s say that upfront. But I’ve had success with it and others of also reported success using Monkey Whizz (Serious Monkey business synthetic urine), so yes it can work. It contains all the attributes you need to pass it off as a real sample.
- Contains uric acid
- Very accurate color
- Correct pH
- The correct specific gravity
- Heat pads are designed to get a really accurate temperature
- Temperature strip is easy to read under pressure

I’m going to level with you here, in terms of having a reported monkey whizz fail, yes it happens. You might read reviews saying it’s foolproof, but the quality under a detailed lab test may not be enough.
Monkey Whizz Review: Conclusion & Alternatives
Monkey Whizz is high quality synthetic urine that will get you through a basic lab test. It contains all the right chemicals, looks and smells right and is easy to dispense at the right temperature.But the bottom line here is I have to be honest and say that you get what you pay for. It’s $39 and it’s okay.
You can order it here.

But if I was really under pressure then the number one product I would reach for is still Sub Solution. It’s simply the best fake piss for drug test out there, its construction is far more close to human urine than anything else.
Number two, I would go for Quick Fix 6.2, the new formulation is even better than before and close to the level of Sub Solution. For more details on Sub Solution and Quick Fix, click here.

But yes, if you don’t have access to those two, and don’t want to spend $139 on Whizzinator, then for a basic piss test sample Monkey Whizz will probably do the job.
