Drug testing kits often use an abbreviated drug name rather than listing it in full. This is because space on product packaging and labeling is limited, and listing the full name of ten or more drugs can take up quite a lot of room.

Here is a list of the common drug abbreviations used in the drug testing industry:

AMP Amphetamine
BAR Barbiturates
BUP Buprenorphine
BZO Benzodiazepines
