Suboxone/xanax Not Showing Up On Drug Test
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I have been taking Suboxone and Xanax for over 2 yrs and have never been drug tested. My doctor was not in so one of his colleagues decided to run a drug test on me. I tested negative for everything on the panel including my own medicine. Because of this I am being dropped by my doctor as they think I am selling my medicine. Why would this panel not pick this up?

I would ask for a retest and see if you can come back when your dr is in.

I was thinking the same thing. Is it his SUB doc? If not then it wouldn't show up. Unless sub tests have gotten cheaper or THEY spare no expense. At one point a year ago those tests were a couple hundred bones

oh by the way,,,,,,, not sure why your doc doesnt know this but the reason it didnt know up probably is cuz suboxone isnt an opiate. it just ACTS like an opiate in the brain. duhh. your doctors sound a bit slow....

ask for a different type of test, blood, hair..... the urine test should show what youve done in the last 6-7 days, they might not test for benzos(xanex) ... and i was on suboxone and i didnt know they tested for actual suboxone, i thought they just test for heroin and cocaine, meth, extacy, whatevs. i dont see why they would have a pee test for Buprenorphine (suboxone) im pretty sure they just want to know that you are clean - cuz if u took heroine then youre obv not taking ur suboxone cuz u cant...... if they give you more flack just say that youll change to daily witness (the pharmacy gives you each day and watches you take) instead of carries. but it really sucks to do that

Yes my son had a drug test and passed the first two which should have been positive and the last one was positive and should have been negative hose drug tests don't work unless u take one at the doctors and then they send it to a actual lab and its not fair to the people in court proceedings when those tests are not accurate i would ask for a lab resulted test at a physicians office period

Ask for a retake of the test. It is possible that you got a false negative - it has happened to me. Also, try to use your first morning urine - if not possible then hold your urine for as long as you can before you test. You could be very well hydrated and you are urinating a lot water.

If u didn't use ur suboxone in the last 24-72hrs it is possible but also 5% of all DTests fail to give proper results anyways. That's a 1/20 shot ur test is going to mess up! Also not sayin u r but if u r sellin ur suboxone, u can not only get a felony charge for selling a Schedule 3 drug/med but can also get u for practicing medicine w/o a licence. this happened to one of my buddies who is now spending 6yrs in prison and this was 1st offence! Now he has 2strikes against him, 1 more and lookin at life and all he did was sell a few suboxone to undercovers who flipped someone! Just letting yah kno? not accusing u of anything to get this straight k?
