Oxazepam False Positive Because Of Other Meds?

Updated

I took an initial 8 panel ua and it came up positive for Benzo's, so I asked for it to be sent in for a gs/ms test with the chemist, it then came back for Oxazepam and I never took any, I took Librium before I went to treatment and I only took it for a couple weeks and then I took Ativan in treatment for the first wk and then nothing. I'm unsure why this test came back positive, can you help answer this for me?

If you take Ativan, it is metabolized down into Oxazepam. I had the same thing happen with Valium. The chemist told me that valium breaks down into oxazepam, as well as Ativan, Restoril and a few other drugs I can't recall.
