False positive for benzos?
Date: 2/28/2012
I am on methadone, elavil, gabapentin, along with milk thistle for my liver. Can anyone of these things cause a false positive for benzos? Please help. I have another urine test coming up in March I don’t wanna fail.
Mary
AskDocWeb: Elavil may show false positive for opiates for up to three days and may also show positive for LSD and/or methadone. However none of those would show false positive for benzos.
One kidney
Date: 2/28/2012
I have just taken a drug test today and I had a test of a false positive for opiates. I have only one kidney and could possibly have come into contact with lidocaine though intercourse with my wife? Could any of these have affected the results?
Timm
AskDocWeb: Contact with lidocaine through intercourse would not affect the test results of a urine drug test for drugs of abuse. However several sources have reported that those with kidney problems have tested false positive for opiates. When in doubt, a confirmation test is required to eliminate false positive test results.

How long those ambien/zolpidem stay in your system? Can zolpidem show on a urine exam has an opiate or any other type of narcotic? I quickly is out of your urine and faces?
John
AskDocWeb: Ambien does not show up on a urine drug test for drugs of abuse. The average person takes from 10 to 15 hours to eliminate Ambien from the body.

Mirtazapine
Date: 2/29/2012
I’ve just had a hair sample taken for a pre-screening hair follicle drug test in order to be hired for at a company. Since they use a temp-agency to find suitable candidates I also was subject to a UA at my time of application at said agency. In the last two months I was prescribed Mirtazapine (15mg) as a sleep-aid. My question is this: Though I passed the UA without problem, is there a chance Mirtazapine could cause a false positive in my hair results?
Benjamin
AskDocWeb: That seems unlikely, Mirtazapine has not been reported to cause any false positive drug test results for drugs of abuse.

Trish
AskDocWeb: As you have found out, false positive drug tests can be emotionally devastating for the person being tested and they can also create a great amount of emotional distress for the patient’s family. There are about 50 different substances that can cause a false positive for meth on urine drug tests. These include prescription and over-the-counter meds so you may want to check the big list. Sending the sample to a lab for confirmation is the only way to resolve a false positive.
