Don't even think about using anything to try to mask your urine drug test results. They also test for any known substance that people use for this purpose.

I. Tested. Positive. For. Methamphetamine. At. My probation. I. Take the following meds: Well butrin, Buspar, Gabipintin, Internal, Doxipin, and Percacet, on a daily basis. Three days before this test I went to the ER and was given IV morphine, Zofran,and ondoansetrin pepcid omeprazole with prescription for lortab, tramadol, ondansetron, and omeprozole. Could any of these meds cause a false positive for Methamphetamine

Absolutely, YES. It causes the most false positives for methamphetamine than any other thing out there. But with further and more expensive testing they can figure it out. However most places don't want to pay the extra money for it. It depends on who ordered the test and why you're being tested.

Do not give false answers. The test will tell us the difference. We know if it is an over the counter (L-Meth) or it is a prescription/street drug (D-Meth). The two prescriptions are Desoxyn & Didrex, otherwise it is STREET DRUG!!!

I know I work in the drug test field.

Hydrocodone WILL NOT show up as an opiate as this drug, along with oxycodone is not a true opiate, but rather an "opioid". In other words it's not directly derived from opium. Up until a few years ago these drugs would not show up on a drug test at all, and even today if your taking a standard 5 panel drug test such as a DOT drug test, these will NOT show up. The company ordering your test would have to ask for a 9 panel test, although there are some 7 panel tests that include one or both of these drugs. Or they can specifically request the sample be additionally tested for these, but if it's a DOT test, the type of test is regulated by federal regulations and therefore they can ONLY run the standard DOT 5 panel test which WILL NOT show EITHER of these drugs. Neither of these drugs will show false positive for METHAMPHETAMINE either. You are badly misinformed. Codeine, Morphine, and similar that are natural alkaloids of the opium show up as an opiate the same as heroin but synthetic opiates (opioids) will not. I hope this helps

My sister smoked for years and years... She quit and 6 months after quitting. Not smoking AT ALL she tested positive for marijuana. It takes a lot longer the longer you have done it.

On a UA THC will show up for "up to" 30 days with a "maximum" of 40 days. If the test is Blood test rather than urine you could "possibly" add another 2 weeks to that, but "ONLY" if they are testing for "any detectable amount" most judicial based tests such as for probation or drug court use the same federal standard as a pre-employment drug test and these are "all" regulated to only be deemed a positive result IF the substance they are screening for is "above" a certain PPM/KG of body mass or PPM/ per units of blood/urine. The "ONLY WAY" she caught a positive after 6 months if your 110% certain she's being honest about her use is if they do a hair test. Hair grows about 1/2"-1" per month so if she hasn't had her hair cut they could, "technically" see every chemical she put in her body going back as far as the time frame the length of her hair would allow, "BUT", we STILL have the issue that the vast majority of situations that require anyone to take a drug test are regulated by federal laws and they can't just test for anything they want going back as far as they want and show any detectable amount as a positive
