Repeated Suboxone False Positives

Updated

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.

I think if everyone listed the other medications their taking we'd be able to figure out the common culprit. Reading those who have, I've noticed lisinipril and melatonin is most.

I am in drug court and while been in I have failed 2 drug tests for suboxone. Granted the first one was actually correct and I had taken the drug illegally. However the second time (4 months apart) I did not. I had been seen the very same day for kidney stones and I was given a shot of toradol and a 2mg pill of dilautid any idea if those 2 drugs could cause a false positive for suboxone. I need to know fast I have docket call on Monday and at risk of being kicked out please help so I can have some sort of proof!

Ps. My probation officer thought I was living to him and got mad and told me to just dump it out and get out of his office. Granted from my prior behavior I cannot blame him for this. However when I dumped it out there went all chance of sending it to a lab and getting g the truth.
