Methadone Uring Test

Updated

I have been tking methadone for many years, recently my Dr. ordered a drug urine test. I am wondering if she is the one prescribing the methadone, why is she ordering a drug test?

She may want to just check and make sure that you are taking the medication, as prescribed and not abusing it or selling it.

It is very common for doctors to do this. If you are prescribed a certain amount, at a certain dosing interval, the levels in your urine should fall within a certain range. Anything outside of that range can alert them to a potential problem.

As I seen someone else wrote, absolutely she is checking the nanograms to see if you are using it properly. I have a question though, is it a lab she is sending you to? If so, she is just checking your counts.
