Suboxone Drug Test Oral Swab (Page 2)

Updated

Hi everyone. Hopefully someone out there has some advice for me. I have been on subs since October 17th of '12 and I take it everyday HOW PRESCRIBED which is 1 and 1/2, total 12 mugs a day of the 8mg strips. I don't take at a set time or anything like that and sometimes don't take at all or at least the whole prescribed amount. Well long story short here; I take drug tests every month and sometimes twice a month for my sub doctor and have never had a problem with my results. I have also taken pre-employment screens and they are fine as well. All of these tests are urine. Well back in November I had an appt with a caseworker at JFS to review my sobriety and caseplan progress. I took a half strip before I went in and, if I remember correctly, that was all I had taken that day. Well she gave me a oral mouth swab test and had me stick it under my tongue to get an optimal amount of saliva on it. I made sure to inform her that I took suboxone orally and in the same place that I was putting this lovely cotton stick at. It was at least 30-40 mind since I took my half a strip. Now mind you I had to explain what suboxone even was to her but, she told me it didn't matter how or when I took it. She said it wouldn't affect mu results. I told her how many mgs a day I took as well. So just a few days ago she decided to let me know that this oral swab taken on November 19th just now failed for suboxone. She said it showed a HIGHER THEN THERAPEUTIC LEVEL. She also refused to give me a copy of it. I had to have my attorney file a motion of discovery to get a copy of it. Has anyone else ever experienced this or have LEGITIMATE information about how that's evn possible. Like I said I'm in this program for the right reason, I take my subs how prescribed and follow my doctors advice to the extreme. I'm serious about living a better life and being a better mother but I've always felt this woman has something against me....and that's not just me being paranoid, trust me. Anyway, ANY info would be great. I would love to.blow this hateful, volatile woman's theory out of the water and get her out of our lives for good. Thanks in advance guys, Ash :)

My PO dept tests for bupe, a new twelve panel urine they had. Never heard of a saliva testing for it without being sent to a lab....

Even if you were to fail for anything you could contest it, saliva tests are notorious in the medical community for being flawed.

I'd say you don't have anything to worry about!

I'm hoping so.. I'm pretty sure they only do a 5 panel test for me, but not positive. Fingers crossed. I took it today.

Do they send them off? Eveb then it's probably just basic anyway.

What state are you in btw? Let us know what happens, people are always asking about it. It was unheard being tested for, I couldn't believe my PO dept tested for it, but they catch on to everything eventually!

Crossing fingers for ya :)

Well it sounds like your doctor, ya know the guy with MD after his name, probably knows what the hell he's looking at when it comes to the results unlike lets say....an uneducated social worker who was given a pamphlet on how to administer them.

Hey Anna, they knew I was on suboxone so they requested it be tested for that too. Just to be safe I wouldn't take any for 24 hours before your test, if they do test for it tge levels will be wacky.

They shouldn't even use oral swabs, their faulty for one, two they don't seem to know how to accurately read the lab results. Three, they're not doctors. Four, they will use anything, imaginary or real and misconstrued to ruin your life. Get out of that system as quick as possible.

I just took a mouth swab test for a job at PUBLIX & I took a 8mg suboxone film last night. I do have a prescription. Will it come up as opiates? If so, can I say it's suboxone and it's a prescription? Will that still affect my job offer? I'm so worried plz help

@Bella, i hear that a lot of drug tests that are for employment do not test for suboxone. But even if they do it will not show up as opiates. It would come up as Bupheronine and because you are prescribed it you have nothing to worry about! So hope all goes well and goodluck!
