Does Oxycodone Show Up On A Urine Test As An Opiate

Updated

I had a doctors appointment today and was told I failed a drug test for testing positive for opiates. I am prescribed oxycodone. I am confused as to how if oxycodone is not an opiate did I test positive for opiates. My visit is a difference of 85$ if I have to have another drug screen. I was given a warning and told that my next visit would cost the extra and my urine would then be sent to the lab if I failed again. How am I failing????

From what I understand Oxycodone does show up as an opiate.. However the last test I failed. the nurse called me and said I failed specifically for oxycodone.. It could depend on the test also.. Its confusing I know.. But your Doctor should be smart enough to know the Oxy is showing up as an opiate. You may have to point it out however and put some Google in his face.

I have the same problem...I am prescribed oxycodone, but I am told it does not show up as opiate like heroin , supposedly it shows up as an opiode. They weren't always like that, apparently they improved the drugs to differentiate the 2. Any one know 4 sure? I think it must b right cause everyone is posting that they r prescribed pills like these but testing positive 4 opiates and that's not the same as the pills. So, I guess everyone who told me the pills show as opiodes were right.

Oxycodone is not considered an opiate on a drug test. It is in a class of its own. So it will test positive for Oxycodone only.

Percocet is the brand name for oxycodone/acetaminophen combo. If you are prescribed oxycodone and take Percocets, they are essentially the same thing. The only problem you might run into is that you exceeded your dosage so it will appear that you are overusing.

I find this insane, he gives opiates and you fail a test because you have opiates in your system, don't make since, could he have said you don't have in your system and you thought the other, because s negative test is not good.

So my first take home test that checks for Opiates will not test positive if I take percocets? I take Percy's daily and took a 4 panel drug test checking for THC, opiates, cocaine and methamphetamine and showed negative for all. Is this right??

Yes, oxy/roxy will show up on most modern urine tests either as an opiate, oxycodone (if the specified reactant strip is separated), or both. This is primarily due to the ingredients used in manufacturing. Most modern urine tests (even the el-cheapos) have multiple reactants on each panel to detect just about anything you can think of. For example: I use mostly 5-panel tests for my prospective employees, and these simple strips can detect up to 17 different substances for the very modest price of $1.60 each. Oxycodone does show up as an opiate. If the applicant has a medical prescription for an opiate or opioid, then I will probe deeper with another simple test strip that will determine exactly which substance it is. My best advice is that if you're concerned about a drug test in the first place, then you have bigger things to worry about than simply failing, and should rethink your priorities in life.

Oxycodone is an opiate so is hydrocodone. They are generic names. Percocet is the brand name for oxycodone with added acetaminophen (tylenol) and Vicoden norco and lortab are the brand name for hydrocodone with acetaminophen Roxicodone is the brand name foe oxycodone with no acetaminophen.
