Opiate Drug Test Hair

if i am a subtance misuse user of heroin and the courts have asked me to have a hair strand test will they just test for that one drug or is there a test that can test for all drugs at the same time, or can they only test for one drug at a time. ## I have used heroin in small amounts. Less than half gram twice in the past month. About the shots each time. Is this to little to make it above the cutoff levels for a hair follicle test? Also. I have a for hydrocodone but often take more than the prescription calls for. I was told the test is not quantitative so as long as I have a valid script, I'll be ok? Super concerned about the small amount use of heroin.

I want to know if tramadol shows as an opiet in a hair follicle test. The company I'm working for does a thirteen panel drug screen. Is that a test that breaks down specified prescribeddrugs for what they are or one that just says there's opiets in your system?? ## While it is a very mild opioid, Tramadol requires a very specific test to detect and is not included in the standard urine tests that are administered. In addition, if you have a prescription for it, then all you have to do is inform them of that, when you go in for testing. Are there any other comments or questions?

Hi I have a 5 panel hair drug test coming up in a few weeks. I take 5 tens a day but I'm on prescribed one script of 15 5mg hydros to be taken 3 times a day. That script was from a month ago. Three years ago I got a script of 30 hydro 5 mg to be taken 3 times a day. I'm a temp employee and to go full time you have to take a hair test that the application states goes back 60-90 days. A couple guys at work that take hydros say no matter if you abuse as long as you have a script your ok. Others say its all about your levels. Will I pass? ## A normal NIDA 5 hair drug test panel will not even test for hydrocodone. A 1.5 inch sample, cut at the scalp line, will go back 90 days.The opiates tested for would be codeine, morphine and heroin. Hydrocodone is in the extended opiates panel wh...

I took a 10mg percocet on Monday at 7pm. I have a urine test Monday at 4pm will I test positive,even though I used one last week ## According to the latest testing information available, Oxycodone is usually detectable in most people for approximately 5 days, after last dosing. It will always vary slightly from person to person, which is why there is no precise time frame to give, but 5 days is the general average. Learn more Percocet details here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## But what about hair how long does it stay in your hair after taken a oxycondone

I want to know if tramadol shows as an opiet in a hair follicle test. The company I'm working for does a thirteen panel drug screen. Is that a test that breaks down specified prescribeddrugs for what they are or one that just says there's opiets in your system?? ## From what I could gather, a 13 panel screening tests for: Amphetamine, Methamphetamine, Cocaine, Opiate 2000, Marijuana, Phencyclidine PCP, Methadone, Benzodiazepine, Barbiturate, Tricyclic Antidepressants, Propoxyphine, Oxycodone and Buprenorphine only. Since Tramadol hydrochloride is a centrally acting synthetic "opioid" analgesic, it will show up as an opiate in a hair follicle test. While there is always the chance of a false-positive, It is important to know that hair follicle tests can detect drugs from ...

if i insufflated cocaine 3 weeks ago, im a non smoker, my urine is clean, they took hair from under my armpit(which isn't very long), would my results be negative or positive for this CDL driving job. i said my prayers for good results.

I am a methadone patient who has been clean from all other drugs for at least 4 months.today when I went for regular urine testing it testedositive for morphine and coke.they re tested and it showed ( faintly though) negative....how is this possible? They are sending it to a lab ( my request) because I am pissed off and mostly dumbfounded.how is this possible and will the lab squash any suspicions that they may have that I am lying? I also have to do a hair test and am worried if there can be errors there too

I took three Oxycodone pills 3 weeks ago and I had a hair test done today. Will it show on the test? ## The only way it would show up is if the lab did a Hair 5 Panel Drug Test with Extended Opiates. A hair drug test is meant to show consistent use over time. The Oxy is in the Extended Opiate part of the test. A 1.5 inch sample, cut at the scalp line, will go back 90 days. Usually an employer will only do the Hair 5 Panel Drug Test, plus, 3 oxy pills is not enough for it to show up. I don't think I would lose any sleep over it. ## On a 9 panel extended opiate hair follicle test will oxycodone and oxycontin both show up the same ## Did you pass it? I'm in about the same situation and in a custody battle. ## I hope this person who took this hair test can get back on here and let u...

I had a hair folicle drug test today for pre employment. I am prescribed 10/325 Norcos 5 times a day and 15mg MS Contin twice a day for lower back arthritis and muscle degeneration. About 2 months ago (June 17-21 or so) not thinking, I took probably a total of 7-8 5mg Percocet. I haven't used those prior, and none at all afterwards. They had to take from my arm pit since my hair is usually short. Would that still show up? If so how much of a presence will there be in it? I'm not sure how those tests work. If it does come back positive, is there a way I can talk my way out of it considering what else I take? Thanks in advance.

I have to take a hair follicle test in 18 days. I take suboxone 3 times a day but its only a 5 panel for Amphetamines, cocaine/metabolites, opiates, extended opiates, phencyclidine, and THC metabolite. But my question is will clonazepam aka klonopin show up? I know its the drug class benzodiazepine and i don't think it falls under extended opiates. If anyone can clear this up? ## I'm interested if you ever received an answer for this question! I have the same question right now! I recently took a test hair follicle with extended opiates and I'm literally freaking myself out! Please help me ## Benzodiazepines do not fall under the extended opiate category. The extended opiate and cutoff levels are as follows: Hydrocodone ( Vicodin, Loratab/Lorect ) Cutoff - 200 pg/mg Hydromor...

Popped up positive on a urine test for morphine and codeine. NEVER took either of them. Had 6 poppy seed muffins in two days. Will a hair test save my job? ## Back in 1998 the the US government changed the urine cut-off level, making it higher (2000ng/ml), so there would be less false positives for opiates due to poppy seeds. If they used the lower cut-off level of 300ng/ml shame on them for not know what they are doing. Was the urine test they did on you a rapid screening test or was it a lab test? The reason I ask this is if you showed positive on a rapid screening test they should have sent it to a lab for GC/MS confirmation. If they did do a confirmation test it could have been able to detect the difference between poppy seed and real opiates. If they still have some urine left over...

I would like to know if norcos and methadone both show up as barbiturates or opiates basically in the same category in a hair follicle test? ## They will show up as opiates. ## Methadone is in its own category on a 12 panel test. It will not show up as an opiate i have first hand experience. .i don't know about norcos though. .i think they will show up as an opiate..Neither will show up as a barbiturate. ## IMHO the doctors are making excuses/lies to drop their compliant patients, I have received this treatment also. I was a model pain patient. My guess is they are being scared to continue to prescribe methadone at the lectures they must attend in order to keep license in good standing. I was on methadone for 20+ years. I am also living with co-infection hiv/hcv. I just finished a m...

I thought it was a non-narcotic pill but it gives me the same feeling as would Lortab or Codiene. ## tramadol would not show up in a hair drug test. Also it would not show up in a urine rapid screening test. Most rapid screening test are calibrated for morphine. Morphine is excreted unmetabolized, and is also the major metabolic product of codeine and heroin. ## I took tramadol three days ago and have to take a urine drug test that gets sent to a lab will I test positive ## what panel will tramadol show up on have test at 100 2 today ## For the most part not many labs test for tramadol unless it is specifically asked for so it most likely won't show up on a hair drug test or urine drug test ## Can u put a little oxycodone into a synthetic urine bottle and get away with it if it gets...

I take multiple fioricets on a daily basis for cluster migraine headaches. Will it show up as THC or an opiate on a hair follicle drug test? ## One of the good things about hair drug testing is that it is good at differentiating between substances. Fioricets should not cause a false positive for THC or Opiates.

I have taken a total of (2) 5MG Oxycodone in the past 90 days. I recently had to get a hair follicle test done (with expanded opiates). One Oxycodone was taken about 90 days before, and the other exactly 7 days before my hair test. I am looking to see if anyone has any experience with passing / failing the hair test at these low dosages? I am not sure what the cutoff levels are, but I think it 100 PG/MG. I haven't slept in 3 days I am so nervous. Thanks for any replies. ## I had a similar issue last year and passed. However, I think the cutoff was 200 pg/mg. I heard that new tests look at 100 pg/mg, or even lower - like any trace at all. Good luck ## I know someone is a very similar circumstance. Did it show up in your test?

About 50 days ago I took an unprescribed 5mg percocet for back pain (this was a one time single dose). I thought nothing of it at the time, I don't drink or do drugs. Well now I had to submit to a hair follicle drug test, my question is will this one time use cause me to fail the test? Is there a chance this small amount will be under the cutoff level for oxycodone? Anyone with experience or any Ida's? Thank you. ## I'm in almost the exact same situation. How did your test turn out? ## I took a 15mg oxycodone about 33 days ago and now I need a hair follicle extended opiates test next week will that show up? ## i am having a hair strand test for heroin which i havnt took for 2 years but i forgot to tell nurse taking hair sample that im on methadone script im worried it will s...

I am prescribed oxycodone 10mg taken 4 times daily. I take them as directed. I recently took a 5 panel hair follicle test and it came back negative on everything. Does anyone know a reason that this would not show up on a hair test? I did not have my hair colored or bleached in over two years and I did not take anything to try to alter the results. Thanks! ## The reason oxy didn't show up in a Hair 5 Drug Panel test is that it is not tested for in that panel. In order for it to show up on a hair test you would need to take a test with the Extended Opiates which are the pain killers like oxy. ## So percocet wouldn't show up as an opiate? The people that administered the test said it should of shown up and they didn't know why it didn't. ## In a normal Hair 5 Drug Panel te...

I have been on subutex for over a year and have not taken opiates in that time. I have a really good job and they are now doing a drug test today urine / hair sample test I am the sole provider for my family and do not want to lose my job. I need help on how to pass my test.

It's discrimination if they do. Often, the lab will call & give you a chance to explain any positive results, and with good explanation they will relay to your employer that you're not positive.

I have been on subutex for many years and recently took a hair follicle test and it came back negative... I am a type 1 diabetic. Could this be a cause for the negative results? ## Buprenorphine is not usually tested for in a hair 5 drug panel test or Hair 5 Drug Panel with Extended Opiates so that is why it was negative.

can a 50 time normal of tramodal show op in a hair test?What is normal level. Would 50 times be harmful? ## Tramadol is derived from opiates, but is not an actual opiate itself, so it isn't something that is test for on standard drug tests. In order to test for Tramadol, a special test is required. Learn more Tramadol details here. And yes, if you took 50 times the normal dosage it could very well be harmful, just the same as if you overdosed on any other medication. There are always risks, which is why you should only take what is prescribed. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Can you give the location and how many labs that can test for tramadol. What is the particular test?
