HELP! I have NEVER taken Suboxone in my life. I've never even seen it in real life. After 5 years of clean urine screens for pain management, I suddenly tested positive for it in June. I swore to my doctor I hadn't taken Suboxone or anything else not prescribed to me (because it was and is true) he said he had never seen a false positive but that he was inclined to believe me and would run more specific tests. I went back in a few days ago and he said that I had tested positive a second time, that Suboxone contains a very specific molecule that cannot be misidentified and that he would chalk it up to adulterants in my medications if other patients had tested positive, but no one else had. I'm pretty sure he doesn't believe me anymore. He was willing to send one more sample to another lab, but if it comes back positive he has to discontinue my pain meds. I am taking Zoloft, Xanax, Perphenazine (generic Trilifon), Trazodone, Oxymorphone, Oxycodone, Zyrtec, Excedrin, Sudafed, multivitamins, calcium and magnesium. I stand to lose the Oxycodone and Oxymorphone and, given the severity of the pain I'm facing, that literally puts my life on the line. I feel completely powerless because I never put Suboxone in or on my body in the first place, meaning there is nothing I can do to fix this. I'm scared to death and I don't know where to turn. Please DO NOT give me advice on getting away with taking Suboxone because I can't use it and I don't want it. PLEASE DO respond with ANY information or advice you may have for someone who really is not taking Suboxone and is testing positive for it

Your test is false. Has to be. Youcan not take suboxone with other narcotics as it has naltrexone.

Get sample retested. There are a lot more false positives than people know its buried.

You can. But the nalcon blocks the effects of the opiad and can and usually does throw you into a withdrawal
- but my doctor says suboxobe has to be tested for specifically. In other words, it does not come up in a reg drug screen!! Blood or urine! I know this too because I have to pay extra for a test to show I'm taking mine. ( an ex 75 bucks!) So....something's fishy here.

This is VERY VERY true Suboxone is a totally different test specifically for it and only it...Does your Dr.Prescribe or have license to prescribe Suboxone? If not then you got to fight that something isn't right...good luck

Re: JACQIELINE (# 8)

If he spits into "you know what" you have much more to worry about than a potential false positive for Suboxone. Spitting into the vagina( BTW, that's what it's called) can be deadly if he also blows air into it. It can cause a fatal blood clot ....so learn your anatomy, don't be shy with calling a body part by it's proper name, and tell ur hubby no spitting or blowing air into vaginal canal. Sorry I couldn't offer advice on the Suboxone....

What can u get from spitting on vagina? I think you had better check your facts. you would get the same thing from kissing someone right? That's a mucus membrane to.
