What the heck, as long as I'm looking at this test form, here's what is tested on a 12-panel urine test. Sorry this will be long, but it's good info and standard on any 12-panel. If the Dr orders a 12-panel, all of this is tested either positive or negative. They also have the option of requesting a QUANTITY (like how much is in your system, not just a positive or negative), but my Dr has never done this and I don't think it's very common.

Tested on 12-panel: THC, Cocaine, Opiates (includes Codeine, Hydrocodone, Hydromorphone, Morphine and Norhydrocodone), Oxycodone (seperated from "Opiates" for some reason), Amphetamines, Meth, Phencyclidine, MDMA (ecstasy, I believe), Barbituates, Benzos, Methadone, and Tricyclic anti-depressants.

There's another 25 things that could be tested ONLY if requested individually by the Dr. Weirdly, heroin is NOT included in the standard 12 panel above. This extra stuff includes heroin, bath salts, ketamine, Soma, synthetic pot, Lyrica, etc.

I hope this helps anybody who is stressing about their urine tests ! Good luck !

Soma is a controlled substance in many states. It is a narcotic muscle relaxer, but turns into meprobamate in the body when metabolized by the liver. Meprobamate is the generic name for Miltown and Equanil, an anti-anxiety medicine. I worked in a pharmacy for 12 years so I know this to be true.

Teena, they have never posted back yet to let us know if it showed up as anything.

But yes, Soma/Carisoprodol has been known to cause a false positive for Morphine in a small percentage of people.

Are there any other comments or questions?

You said soma showed up positive on a drug test, was is just a dip or was the test sent to a lab? Because I'm doing drug court and get randomly tested and was not sure if soma was considered a narcotic or not, I'm told if it isn't I'm fine to take it. If it just shows a fake positive for morphine on a dip I'm fine because they send the test for lab evaluation, but I could really use your help finding this out, thank you.

What did the soma show up as? I also heard it could give a false positive for morphine?

Linda,
How do you know a quantitative analysis isn't ordered? I ask because my pm doc sends my urine off to a lab and I have no idea how he sensed a low reading on my prescribed oxycodone-which I had run out of 4 days prior to test. I never see what they test for, I only get a bill. My dilemma, which brought me here, is I had a different doctor prescribe Soma and I'm afraid my pm might dismiss me if it shows on my urine drug panel. I told my 2nd treating doctor (for injections) that I cannot take controlled sub. from other docs (narcotics) & he prescribes me Soma & Tramadol. I trusted him but I think he screwed me. Now, according to your post, both will show up in my urine. I am a legitimate pain patient, unlike 90% of the posters here.

lulu the reason heroin shows up as an opiate is because it is an opiate.In the old days there was a drug called diacetylmorphine, this was and still is heroin.Back then it was used in hospitals and at your local barber shop with the red whit and blue barber shop pole with the medical badge on it (sort of) you could get stitched up, little dope for pain,and hair cut! HaHa. Anyway heroin is made from raw morphine, synthesized by C.R. Alder Wright in 1874 by adding two acetyl groups to the molecule morphine, found in the opium poppy. It is the 3,6-diacetyl ester of morphine, and functions as a morphine prodrug, meaning that it is metabolically converted to morphine inside the body in order for it to work. In 1895, the German drug company Bayer marketed diacetylmorphine as an over-the-counter drug under the trademark name Heroin. Some crazy days indeed?! That is why and only why it shows up as morphine! It is up to 6 times stronger in it's "uncut" form, than morphine.
I know this is off subject about soma urine test but I just couldn't stand some of the comments as to why and what heroin shows up in a urine test. I also took 1/4 of a 350mg soma pill (I cut it into 4 pieces) before bed. It helps me sleep when I can't. I took this 5 days before my urine drug screen at the methadone clinic which is coming up and I to am worried it might show up. I guess we will see!

Soma contains the active ingredient Carisoprodol, it is a muscle relaxant and, as such, it is not tested for in drug tests.

https:/­/­rxchat.com/­wiki/­Carisoprodol/­

This medication may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth.

Are there any other questions?

whoever posted that they are tested by a pain management doctor and only sometimes get tested for fentanyl might want to recheck that, not that you have anything to worry about as you obviously do not take fentanyl, but as it is a very, very abused narcotic, and everyone I know that has died from a drug overdose, is because of fentanyl, I'm pretty sure any drug screen would test positive in the opiates. And I would just like to say to the person who is so much better than most people on this site because they "actually need pain management" you're lying to two doctors to get meds prescribed, it's a felony and I'm happy to burst your bubble by saying you are the exact same as the rest of us addicts, except I've been sober for 3 years and you are still judgemental and in denial!! Good luck with that!!

It depends on the test! There are urine tests for EVERYTHING. Even alcohol can be detected in urine. However, these tests are specialized and expensive so if it's for probation or a job it's not going to be testing for Soma. I'm being monitored by the board of Nursing and their tests are serious business, they have 3 types & the most expensive one tests for damn near everything.

If it's a test that can be read immediately it will NEVER test for Sona. Also, as far as false positives go, Soma & Morphine have nothing in common so if someone tests positive for Morphine it's likely they also too some type of opiate.

Hope this helps!

If it is a narcotic I would not know because I get 300mg morphine aday,percocet 4 times aday,soma 4 times aday and 3 klonopin a day.I do know it does not show up own 5 panel.

Soma never showed up on my 10 or 12 (not sure which 1) screen ua's so I'm sure you'll be fine. I took 3 the day b4 & was worried, so I went to Walgreens & bought their most expensive test (dipstick) & it came back fine. I was "clean" in both tests. I've heard it comes up as morphine but when retested it comes up that it was a false positive. I hope this helped & wasn't 5 wks too late like my reply was! î‰ happy testing

I live in Texas where Soma is a narcotic and, yes, it will show up in a ua. My neurologist/pain management doctor does a uterine test on all patients every 3 months. He does not prescribe Soma so when it showed up in my test (at a kind of high amount) he threatened to dismiss me if it happened again. But yes, there is a test for it. Do not let these other comments fool you. And like I said, depending which state you're in depends on if it's been deemed a narcotic there yet. Hope this helps
