Flexeril absolutely does show up on a drug screen as an anti-deppressent. Anyone who says otherwise should not be commenting on something that they know nothing about

Re: OB Nurse (# 43)
Flexeril does show up as a TCA on a 12 strip test. It happened to me.
Re: ckala (# 42)
Came back “positive” for what? I am a Obgyn nurse and run blood work daily but we must order what we want to test for. The only reason we would run a drug panel is IF we suspected a patient was using drugs that endangered the fetus and had not disclosed that to us. You are either flagged as a high risk patient for drug abuse (that’s not judgment— if so TELL your doctor they can help protect Mom and baby) or you are having symptoms that the doctor can’t diagnose so testing for drugs to see if that is the issue. But drugs of any kind don’t show up on regular blood tests or urine tests for prenatal visits.
Re: dj35 (# 1)
Flexeril can make a false positive show up on blood test. I went to the doctor a month ago for routine pregnancy visit and had been put on flexeril a couple days before at an urgent care. I had to do blood work at my pregnancy visit and went back today (a month later) and doctor said my blood results came back positive since I was on the flexeril....
Re: Mike DO (# 4)
Yes they do test for TCA in urine. It is quite common in our ER. Oh I am a MLT too, so I know.
Re: Belden (# 11)
Benadryl can cause a false pos for benzodiazepine it happened to me twice
if flexerill stays in your system for 3.75 days does that mean you are still under the influence. Can it effect your judgment
Pre employment urine tests are only 5 panels just like a dot test, which I've been tested by dot for 18 years and muscle relaxers do NOT show up on urine 5-panel tests! Anyone who says different is full of s***!
You are wrong about that. 10 and 12 panel Urine screens test for benzodiazepines (anti depressant) and flexeril will show in the TCA catagory (antidepressants)
Flexeril will definitely show up on any type of drug test I know cuz I have been tested and it came up positive thank you all for reading my reply
Answer me this all... I am PRESCRIBED fentanyl, oxycodone for breakthrough and zanaflex, how is it I got a false positive for methadone? Only other things takenwete Tylenol p.m. warfarin, verapamil and ranitidine. I was livid, had them draw blood immediately! Explain if you can please?
Are you sure I take a 13panel drug test on Tuesday and I took one fexeril Sat
A BSN is an RN, Mr. high and mighty. Same thing so you'd certainly not be an End boss for having a bachelor's degree. I can promise you that. And it's spelled FLEXERIL. I am looking at my prescription bottle now. Good God whoever you are, you have an ego.
That's not a very wise think to tell people to take a drug that is not prescribed to them. It's illegal. Again, all drug tests are different. As a health care professional, they test for everything.
As someone was saying earlier. If yuou don't have a prescription to flexeril I'd not take it and that way you wouldn't have to worry. It will show up. I'm an RN with critical care certification and now work in substance abuse so I do know what I'm talking about. Every educated person on this thread is correct. It will show up as false positive for tricyclic and further show to be Flexeril. It's pretty ridiculous for folks with zero medical experience think they can tell those with professional experience in this that they are wrong and don't talk about what you don't know. Tests are different but that is the answer to the question, so, no prescription, don't take it unless you want to possibly be questioned as to why you have a prescription drug in your system without the prescription itself.
In legal situations, rehab facilities, and hospitals they NOW test for tricyclic anti-depressents b/c as with every drug people have begin to abuse them. IE... Trazadone *A GREAT HELPFUL DRUG FOR SLEEPING AND HIGHER DOSAGES WITH ANXIETY* BUT DEFINANTLY TEST FOR THEM NOW, if you fail a test the response of **i didnt know yall tested for that ** is not an appropriate response, its just as bad if not sketchier thane a negative, cause your trying to beat the system. Perfect example is K2 , used never be tested for so that was the go to for people in sober living, parole, etc.... now its standard. Dont try beat the system it will work for a while bur eventually youll lose.
First off you RN 's need to go back to school. I have a BSN which means I out rank you. And your stupid! It's spelled Flexiril. Can't spell it don't take it. I've worked I'm one of the biggest hospital in the world. It is not and I antidepressant it's a muscle relaxer . It doesn't show on drug screens. It's also not a tricyclic . If any of you worked under me I'd fire you. Read your information and get it right!
what an arrogant brat. ur a nurse, not a doctor. u should be fired for having the attitude that u are in control of the patients lives. u are not. u are an assistant
