My husband tested positive for opiates.. His medications are aleve (every day) and setraline 100 mg everyday. He swears he hasn't been taking any kind of pain medication. How is this possible?

I currently take Sertraline. I had to have a drug test for my entrance to school. The only medication I take is birth control, Sertraline, and I was on prescription vitamin D. My urine test came back positive for Benzodiazepines. My Drs office said that the Sertraline wouldn't cause it. They had the lab do further testing. During that time I contacted my pharmacist and after he did some research he found that it can cause a false positive. I then found the zoloft insert online and it says right in the insert that it can cause a false positive. Needless to say, I called my Drs office yesterday and the results came back as everything being negative and the positive for benzos was a false positive from the Sertraline.
