Why is urinalysis performed?!
Question: Urinalysis is NOT primarily used for drug screening. It's primarily used to as an aid in diagnosing renal disease, urinary tract infection and metabolic diseases not related to the kidneys and it will detect normal vs abnormal uriine components. Drug testing is not the same thing as a urinalysis and is not a component of one.
