Does oxycodone make a drug screen test positive for methamphetamine?

No, taking fentanyl will not give a positive result for a drug test screening for oxycodone. It is a fallacy that all "synthetic opioids" show up as the same compound on a drug test. The fact of the matter is that fentanyl has a vastly different chemical structure than oxycodone, and thus would not give a false positive for it on a drug test. Fentanyl would also not give a positive result for hydrocodone or opiates (morphine, codeine, and heroin).

What substance could make a drug test come back positive for methamphetamine's?

Erowid.org has a list of all the substances that can throw a false positive for meth. It is a VERY long list--probably 80 different drugs including diet aids, cold pills and a lot of prescription medicines. Meth is a phenethylamine-class drug AND an amphetamine-class drug, so any drug that looks like an amphetamine, or any drug that looks like a phenethylamine (and there are a BUNCH of these, most not being any fun at all) will trigger a false positive for meth. It gets better: the first order metabolite of meth is amphetamine, so anything that will throw a false positive on an amphetamine test will also throw a false positive on a meth test. That having been said, most people don't test for meth at all--they look for amphetamine because methamphetamine (amphetamine with a methyl group attached) demethylizes in the liver quickly.


Does zolofft cause a false positive for benzo?

I just took a drug test for the company, walgreens, and much to my dismay, it came back positive for Benzos. Since then, I have been doing research to see what could possibly have caused this result. About a 2 years ago, I was inaccurately given a prescription for zoloft, and I asked both the lab, other labs, and my primary care if this could show up positive for Benzos... and while Benzos can be an anti-depressant, from what I've heard, it can't cause this false positive...


Can you have a false positive on a pregnancy test?

False positives are very rare, less than one in a hundred positive tests are false. However with the very sensitive tests nowadays it may show up positive and then you have a very early miscarriage. Even 20 years ago tests were not that sensitive and women 'miscarried' at the time of their period without ever realising they were pregnant.


Can mucinex test positive for methamphetamine?

Plus back a few years ago my mothers pain mangemeny doctor told her mucinex can come back positive for meth or ecastcy. No matter what other websites say. Its very VERY possible.


What can you do when your drug test comes back positive for benzodiazapines and methadone and you know you did not use them?

i took a urine test at work, came back positive for cocaine what medication, perscription and overcountercould have caused this positive?

Certain medications like lidocaine, amphetamines, and certain antidepressants can potentially cause false positives for cocaine on urine drug tests. Over-the-counter remedies like cold medicines containing levamisole or pseudoephedrine could also lead to a false positive result. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider or pharmacist for further guidance and to discuss any medications or supplements you may be taking.
