Brief Answer:
Yes it is too high

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Health care magic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

The 1662 ng/ml is too high. For a non abusive person it is considered lethal amount.

For a person who is doing drugs, the level indicates that he is using very high dosages.

I hope this answers you.
If you have more questions feel free to contact me.
Thanks and regards.
