what current prescriptions can cause a positive result on a standard urine drug test?

Answer 1

Good question, there are some. There was a episode on mythbusters on discovery channel and they ate nothing but poppy bagels and took tests and they came up positive. There is definelt an ingredient in food and drugs that can make u test positive on drug tests,

Answer 2

My partner failed a drug test a few mnths ago whilst applying for a job, he has never taken an illegal drug in his life so he was absolutely mortified, he went to his gp the same day and explained what had happened, turned out it was due to 2 solphadeine he had taken the night before for a migraine, solphadeine contains codeine which apparently would show in a drug test as an illegal substance.
Hope this helps
p.s. after he proved this he was offered the job

Answer 3

All types of drugs show up in a drug test. Unless you are involved in sports( performance enhancers), prescription drugs(legally obtained from doctor) will not be held against you.

Answer 4

Any narcotic.....pain pills, some sleep aids, some muscle relaxers....as long as you have the prescription for it then it shouldn't matter on the drug test. They'll just require proof either the bottle with your name, or verification from the doc.

Answer 5

the standard urine screen for drugs is looking for illegal drugs basically. you would have to be prescribed an 'opiate' to have it positive. anyway, so long as you have a prescription, there isn't anything to worry about.

Answer 6

Positive means the researcher found what they were looking for.

So, I guess you'd want to know what kind of test to know what would register. If it's a test to detect illegal narcotics, then illegal narcotics will register.
