From what I could gather, Fluoxetine is known for causing false positives for amphetamines and LSD; while Morphine and Percocet will test positive for opiates.

Referenced from:
askdocweb.com/falsepositives.html

Methadone is in a class of medications called opiate (narcotic) analgesics; so it would make sense for either Morphine or Percocet (or both) to be a likely cause for the positive result.

The one drug I was unable to find specific drug testing details on was Pramipexole, but I'm thinking the culprits were already found. :)

I hope this info helps!
