Does Olazapine Cause False Positive Drug Test For Benzodiazepine?

Updated

I have been taking 10mg of olazapine daily for about 2.5 years, will my urine drug test be positive for benzodiazepines? If it is positive, can GS/MC drug test reveal the specific drug I'm taking?

I am sorry, but yes. I went to jail last Summer for 30 days for this. I think what you are referring to is Oprazolam, or something like that. I don't remember exactly what it is called.

Zyprexa is an antidepressant right? You should be fine. Thats the good news. Now here is the bad news: You will be fine because the GC/MS test DOES tell exactly what drug has been used. Its not like it says "Opiates" and you are cool, wether you are taking hydrocodone or oxycodone..the GC/MS knows...so I hope this helps.

No, Olanzapine isn't known to cause a false positive for any other medications on drug tests.

Are there any other questions or comments?

i read the link but couldnt verify your answer. making sure that it will not show a false positive for benzodiazepines is ver y important because my girl firend is consideran entering a clinical research study in which a urine test for benzodiazepines and others drugs is requiered. a positive result for benzodiazepines will ban her for life at the research facility. Thanks

I've been on Olanzapine but for some reason I've been getting a positive for cocaine through a hair follicle and ive never touched it a day in my life. Now they're asking me to do 10 days in jail. Wondering if it could be my psych meds???

Olanzapine is a weird thing called a thienobenzodiazepine. It does not act like a typical benzo, but because of its chemical structure it CAN cause a false positive for benzos on a dip stick test. Fortunately lab tests will clear you if you have only been using olanzapine

Yes, on dip stick urine tests, Olanzapine can show a false positive for benzodiazepines. A lab test will clear you.

It would show up on a lab test for metabolites of olanzapine, nothing else.
This medication is known to cause false positives on immediate(dip stick tests)

Re: Issie (# 5) Expand Referenced Message

Immediate (dip stick test) it has a high chance due to its chemical structure.
A lab test would verify that it was olanzapine causing a false positive

Olanzapine is a thienobenzodiazepine. It does not act like a typical 'benzo' but due to its structure, on dip stick tests it has a high chance for false positive of benzo.
Lab test will clear you though. Hope this helps!
