Cocaine False Positive Urine Test 12 Days After Dosing

Updated

I am in the process of getting clean and after 12 days clean my home urine test was positive. The only over the counter stuff I take are sleeping pills and aleve. I am devastated as my husband and I are doing this together and his was negative. He thinks I'm lying. Please anyone out there shed some info.

Depending upon how heavy of a user u were and how your body metabolized it could be the reason.

It's possible because my ex was a long term methamphetamine user and he showed up positive for a month... I can't remember the exact time but it was way longer than you'd think. You've got to drink plenty of water, but at this point I'd ask them if you can take a test like a GCMS that can measure more accurately the levels of metabolites and say you'll pay for it. There's always an answer.

What do the sleeping pills contain? You're sure you haven't taken any other OTC meds like energy supplements? A lot of those contain substances like Sudafed which could give you a false positive for amphetamines. And depending on your weight, & how heavy a user you were and your metabolism, it can take longer then 3 days/week. My ex was a heavy user of methamphetamine years ago and he tested positive for close to a month after and his probation officer didn't violate his probation so she had likely seen such situations before. Start drinking plenty of water and cranberry juice. You can take niacin which you can find in the vitamin supplements which would help rid your body of it quicker, but don't take more then the reccomend dosage of it. Some people can be sensitive to it. So read all of the label. Since cocaine is water soluble drinking plenty of water and exercising should help. Some people would say it should be out by now but I know for a fact that people can vary greatly when it comes to how fast their body metabolizes certain substances. There's really many factors including kidney function even so keep your head up and work out, drink extra water, try niacin if you want. Also redbulls contain niacin and lots of B vitamins that will help and give you energy to exercise, take in account the niacin in the redbulls if you decide to take the niacin supplements! good luck

Kidney and/or liver problems can cause a false positive for cocaine.

Does a GCMS test prove to be more accurate than urine testing? I tested positive for coke in a urine test but I don't DO coke!!!

Slow metabolism, heavy use & excess body can make it show for weeks.

I recently tested positive for cocaine in a stick UA. I havent used the stuff in over a year. I have just returned from a 12 hr road trip where I found a gas station that had energy booster pills at the register. I also took antibiotics a couple days prior to the test and had a lidocaine patch on the day before the test. I'm convinced that when it comes back from the lab, they will see it's not cocaine.

I have not had cocaine in over a year, but keep coming up positive. The only meds I have taken are Aleve and Benadryl. Could this be the problem?
