Characteristic problems in the interpretation of laboratory data when a drug or its metabolite interferes with a laboratory procedure are reviewed. Various mechanisms of interference (physical, chemical, pharmacological and drug-drug interaction) are discussed. The role of a computerized drug-test interference file in assisting in the prediction and interpretation of apparent test results is described.
