False Positive For Diazepam

Updated

I tested positive for diazepam and nordiazepam on a toxicology drug screen. I do not take these drugs. Is it possible that zolpidem(I'm prescribed) could cause a false positive for benzo's?

I tested positve for diazepam in a blood test. I do not nor have ever taken diazepam. I do take ambien, and have seen where ambien tests "false positive" for diazepam on a urine test. Can ambien also test "false positive" for diazepam in a blood test?

Ambien contains the active ingredient Zolpidem and no, I haven't been able to find any information on it causing false positives for anything.

Were you taking anything else, even over the counter products?

I really need help. I was charged with a DUI for having ambien,diazepam, and nordiazepam in my blood. I do not take or have ever taken diazepam, and I don't even know what the nordiazepam is. Even so the levels of everything that showed up are considered "theraputic",not enough to be impaired. I have heard that ambien can cause a false positive for diazepam in a urine test. Does anyone know if it can cause a "false positive" in a blood test? I am really baffleled by this! I appreciate any input into this problem!

Itook 10mg of zolpidem and 3 hours later tested .043 MG/L for the zolpidem. Can this be correct?
