I am assuming you're talking about the fentanyl patch, is it a urine test or a blood test? I am on methadone and I have to give 2 urine samples a week..fentanyl doesn't even show up as an opiate in my urine when I have relapsed. I have sucked on a piece of a 100 mcg patch (NEVER do THIS it's extremely dangerous)..I have used the patch as prescribed amd it doesn't show in urine tests.

Yes, on a test that looks for the specific drug, rather than just the presence of opiates, it should be detected as Fentanyl and its metabolites and not anything else.

However, if the test being done is a non-certified one, then there is always the possibility of getting a false positive for something else, since some of them can be unreliable.

Are there any other questions or comments?

I have had 2 doctors refuse to see me anymore because the Fentanyl patch did not show up in my drug test . I use it as prescribed , every 72 hrs. Why does this happen ? It is very frustrating.Only 1 dr. found it and after using the 100 fentanyl patch for 2 years she said only a "scant" amount showed up. She moved and now I'm having to go thru it again. Fentanyl did not show up in my first test with this new dr. I'll know his decision in 2 weeks.

Ok, methadone is a synthetic opiate, BUT, fentanyl is a "2nd class" synthetic. meaning, unless lets say, probation knows u take fentanyl & buy that very specific test for it, it WILL NOT show up on the standard 12 panel urine tests. But if your being tested in a doctors office, with a lab handy, then YES, it will show up, but not as methadone. It will show up in the 2nd classes of synthetics. Its stored in your metabolites, so the normal urine tests, without a lab, like dip stick kinds, will not even have a space to detected it. Only the 1st classes, like methadone & so on. I hope I explained that as clearly as it was in my head ;) lol...

Because you're oxy metabalizes just a tiny bit into morphine after it is ingested. Fentanyl im not sure about. But codein, morphine, and heroin all metabalize into morphine as soon as it hits you're liver. Oxy will metabalize into morphine enough for it to be traceable as morphine for maybe 8 - 32 hours after you take it, it also depends on how much you took too.

Recently I went to Drs.After giving urine in cup and waiting roughly ten minutes before being tested with the 5 seperate drug strips.The Doctor asked me if I was taking Methadone.In utter shock I said no no way then the Dr used a brand new 5 strip tester and it was the same results.I was ordered to give another urine sample to a clinical lab in same building ten minutes later .What are the chances that the doctor was getting a false reading.I have been on the patch 75mcg every two days Kadian 20mg 3 times per day I did run out of Kadian 3 days prior but still had patch on.2 times tested and then lab recieved urinalysis but different sample than first one.I have been on patch for over 12 years.I did take 4 50mg gravol about two hours prior.Quite concerned about doctor playing games I tell u I did not take any Methadone and concerned that this was a game.It is B S

Recently when visiting to my Doctors I always submit urine sample and I do not take any illegal drugs period not even pot.This female practicing Doctor not a doctor did the test for Fentanyl Patch which I have been on fo 12 years.She asked me if i take methadone.In shock i said no absolutely not.She went and got a brand new test strip and once again the fentanyl was showing methadone.I am incensed and outraged that she would ask such a question knowing full well that i would never jeopardise my situation never.So when my doctor ca,me in I said it is impossible and the only other pill I took was gravol so i went down to the lab in his building within 10 minutes.He said to go to his lab which I did and I sensed that if i would have left or go to another lab I would be pretty much show deception.I know for a fact I should be showing Fentanyl.What are the odds of this happening from the test done buy strip and is it possible to prove my innocense buy submitting a blood sample and possibly a hair sample your answer is urgent Thanx from CANADA

Once again i am frustrated and had to resort to bringing a tiny recorder to record this nitemare because i am not going to be accused of something and having no way to back myself up if things in a drs office are said or accusations are suspected.For the last three months everytime i go see my doc for renewal i must submit a urine sample to test for fentanyl and kadian 20mg three times daily as well the 75mcg fentanyl every 48 hoursMy first test that got sxrewed up was tested 2 times with two new stick testers and the doc asked if i was taking methadone i have been doing the piss test at this office for two years and never had a problem before so when asked did i take methadone i said no twice and had to give a sample to a lab it came back showing nothing accept the fentanyl and kadian.the same thing happened again and this time i was testing pos for barbituates,again i went to lab and submitted another sample the third visit was the one that made me angry.The nurse comes in and i said tell these games stop.She says i test positive for Meth I'm very angry and i said this is impossible so she goes and test the sample again comes in and says yep meth i said this is stupid then she checks the other two lab results showing nothing but the fentanyl so i said three tests and your dip stick test failedsix times out of three urine samples but the lab shows nothing other than prescribed.So i said is this going to be a lifelong moronic stupid bs test every visit as i said obviopusly those test strips are no working right.The answer i get back is no they are reliable.Did i just hear you say they are reliable when they failed six times in three visits but the lab shows i am not taking anything but prescribed.I stopped seeing this Doctor because i feel like a labrat and why should i put up with these games because i am in serious spinal pain for over twenty years with multiple surgeries and 13 sets of MRIS.Its bulls*** and when i do see a new doctor I'm going to tell him why.I am not in the wrong period and never ever taken anything that is not prescribed.I deserve a little respect about this and i find i am fighting these games to prove my innocence from their incompetent stick tests that they say are very reliable.I dont need this crap so that is why i recorded the last two visits because a doctors word stands higher and believable as to his patient who could suffer cruel accusations from faulty tests AM I RIGHT HERE.I need an answre.Very angry and rightly so in CANADA

Hey all,

I have been reading a ton about fent and if it shows up on tests here are my conclusions:

I took a 12 panel dip stick drug test (testing:marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine, amphetamines, ecstasy, opiates, PCP, benzodiazepines, methadone, barbiturates, tircyclic antidepressants and oxycodone) the day I took fentynal and it did not show up. This is good for any pre employment drug screening because fent is such a low dose they need a specific test which they very well could do in higher ranking positions or military where they send your urine to a lab. Also people who are getting meds from pain dr.'s will have a more comprehensive urine test to check for every specific drug.

But as far as dip stick testing for employment 4-5-9-11-12 panel tests CAN NOT detect fentynal due to the Microgram dose, Methadone has very similar characteristics as fentynal being a synthetic opiod but methadone deals with higher doses

Hope this helps people who are interested in pre employment drug screens

I have crohnes and when I have bad flare ups my mom gives me a patch to get me through, my doctor gives me norcos for pain but I don't like taking them due to the fact they plug me up which makes it worse under pain. My question is if I take a drug test for employment and show my script for norcos will it come back positive for anything else other than opiants?

Re: gabby (# 4) Expand Referenced Message

The fentanyl has to soak into the fat cells underneath the patch and then it can be circulated via blood. I've been on patches for years and it takes about 2 hrs before you feel anything at all and 4-6 hrs after application before the levels in your blood match the mcg on the patch. Know this is a late answer but posted it for others with the same question.

Just want to add this since there is a lot of contradicting information on the internet. Fentanyl will 100% not show up in a 10 panel lab test, and it won't even show up in an expanded opioid test. It has to be tested for specifically. Just passed a 10 panel yesterday while wearing the patch. Anyone who tells you it will show up doesn't know what they're talking about, period. If you want further comfort, look on the website of the company that will be doing your urinalysis. They'll have on there what they test for. And in my case, the test was through Quest. It specifically says dilaudid and fentanyl will not even show up on their expanded opioid test. It. Will. Not. Show. Up. Unless. A. Specific. Test. Is. Ordered. For. It.

This is completely wrong actually. Fentanyl isnt even a real opiate. It is considered synthetic meaning to test for it there has to be a completely designated test to detect it.

Oxycodone (the active ingredient in OxyContin) is metabolized into morphine by your liver, this is why it (or its further metabolites) are being detected.

My doctor at the methadone clinic told me that the fentanyl test is very new so they are unsure yet of the accuracy and what can give false positives. However, if you say you didn't take fentanyl and it shows up in your urine screen, they can send your urine to an outside lab for proper testing and then you will get caught lying anyway so it isn't really worth it.
