No, I'm sorry, it won't.

Ibuprofen is nothing more than a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory used to treat pain and fever.

Were you also taking anything else?

Yes...there are SOO many drugs that can cause a false positive for marijuana...I know this because I'm in the suboxone clinic, and I always get false positives for it once every 2 weeks or so..mines mailny because of the Protonix I take...but alieve, ibuprofen, all those can cause a false positive..and I do NOT smoke..so it's no possibility of ever being positive, but it does show up for me as a false positive, then wen they send it away, it always comes back negative.

Please someone help I’m on Suboxone maintenance 16mg i also take adderall for add zocor seroquel for sleep thyroid medication so a couple weeks ago i had trouble sleeping so i bought generic brand unisom diphenhydramine and my urines came back positive for codien i kept getting my urines taken and couldn’t figure out why this was happening i finally remembered that i started taking the diphenhydramine and looked it up and saw it can cause false positives for opiates ok wow i then was so relieved to learn this was the reason why. Well i told my IOP therapist i found out finally what it is it’s the generic unisom I’ve been taking. Showed her the online report thought it was the end of the problem. She called the lab the lab said they sent my urine for more tests and there is no way that the unisom caused this it was determined that it was codien. I was beyond shocked and I’m so scared because why can’t they do more tests to determine that it’s the stupid diphenhydramine?? I just don’t understand i have Cps in my life i spent 6 months away from my kids in a halfway house and recovery center. I attend IOP still 2 times aweek I’m on my maintance medication and I’m very active in my recovery I’ve worked very hard for this. I feel like there’s no way i can prove i didn’t use Codeine. I offered to do a blood test only to be turned down by my IOP and even a hair test they say they don’t do that. Please someone help me I’m willing to do whatever to prove i didn’t use. Also i quit taking the diphenhydramine since Sunday night Mondays urine was positive for codeine but Wednesdays and Thursdays was not.
