Ranitidine Caused A False Positive

Updated

I'm on probation and I was using k2 but I quit and had been clean for 5 days; after I quit I was taking zantac to help with the withdraws when I went in to take a urine test and I came up positive for methamphetamines. My po came by later and said he knew I was using k2 cause he seen it happen before so I thought that my s*** had been laced. To make a long story short it was the f***in zantac that made me come up but I had already admitted to using, so know I'm on house arrest, have to take more drug classes and I'm gonna be on probation longer. DONT TAKE ZANTAC IF ON PROBATION

Be very careful with Ranitidine if you are on probation or take drug panels!!! I had an appointment with my p.o. last Friday, did the U/A, smart ass officer said, "I could arrest you right now for a felony, you are positive for Methamphetamine! I have never even seen Methamphetamine! I am 67 years old. Hell, I was at Woodstock, took my fair share of drugs and marijuana, but NEVER Methamphetamine, and NO drugs at all in the past 20 years, so I was dumbfounded. How the hell could I be positive for Methamphetamine? After an hour of being totally abused, begging not to go to jail, the young cop said, "come back in in 3 days with a clean U/A or you are going to jail" bottom line. I take Zyrtec (150 2X daily) came home, read up on Ranitidine, went back in without taking anything for 3 days, had a clean U/A, and all is good in the world! Don't take this if you have a U/A, or you will fail!
