Subutex And Drug Test

Updated

I am currently prescribed Suboxone, but my doctor gave me 2 Subutex due to the lower cost. I do consume marijuana. I have tried dissolving a piece of Suboxone in clean urine before and the test showed up positive for opiates. Since Subutex is missing the opiate-blocker, if I use someone else's clean urine and sprinkle some Subutex in it will it show up for opiates? I know they test to see if Suboxone is in your urine, but do they test for Subutex also?

They both contain the same opiate, Buprenorphine and would be detected as such if they are testing for it. It is actually the Naloxone in the Suboxone that isn't tested for on these tests.

Learn more Buprenorphine details here.

Are there any other questions or comments?

Verwon, so if I did this the same results would appear?

Verwon, just to make sure, it will still show up as opiate use on the test if I dissolve Subutex in the urine?

They now have labs that test the levels of everything. DO NOT SPRINKLE IN CLEAN URINE as they will notice. I know because it just happened to me
