What does suboxone show up as on a UA?

Standard urine drug tests used in medical and employment settings do not usually test for Suboxone's active ingredients (buprenorphine and naloxone) or any of their metabolites. This means Suboxone will not show up on standard drug tests. Suboxone will not show up as any opioid. However, special tests such as gas chromatography can be conducted on urine samples to look for buprenorphine, the active ingredient of Suboxone. If the lab specifically looks for Suboxone or buprenorphine, it will come up positive as buprenorphine.
