False Positive On Drug Test For Buprenorphine

I am on a pre-trial contract and get drug tested every week.They do an eight panel that tests for Marijuana, Amphetamine, Methamphetamine, Benzodiazephines, Morphine / Opiates, Phencyclidine, and Barbiturates. They also do a separate test for Buprenorphine. I passed the eight panel test, but a faint line showed up on the Buprenorphine test. I don't take any other medications nor do I use Suboxone. What other medications, would cause the false positive on the Buprenorphine test? I have done research, and it all says that other medications would do it. I'm not taking any, and nothing shows up on the eight panel.. is there anything such as food, drinks, hygiene items, etc. that could cause this to happen?

I am on the pretrial program as well. Ive found out that when i take a lsd i will have an extremely faint line. Ive even tried to take lsd a month in advance before my next ua and still faint. Ive heard prilosec can give you a false positive for suboxone as well. Good luck with pretrial. I get sentenced next week.

If the line is only faint, it can't legally be defined as a positive reaction.
You have the right to a 2nd test and if this still produces same result you also then have the right to an independent test , a full urine specimen scan , rather than a urine dip test, as these are much more reliable
