Does Tramadol Show Up As An Opiate In Drug Tests?

Updated

I thought it was a non-narcotic pill but it gives me the same feeling as would Lortab or Codiene.

tramadol would not show up in a hair drug test. Also it would not show up in a urine rapid screening test. Most rapid screening test are calibrated for morphine. Morphine is excreted unmetabolized, and is also the major metabolic product of codeine and heroin.

For the most part not many labs test for tramadol unless it is specifically asked for so it most likely won't show up on a hair drug test or urine drug test

Can u put a little oxycodone into a synthetic urine bottle and get away with it if it gets sent to a lab after a 14 panel strip test? I need oxycodone to be in my system for my pain management appt. I took an 8 mg oxymorphone last night (Sunday) I have my Appt. at 3:30 on Wednesday. I have a very high metabolism. Tall and skinny. Should the oxymorphone be out of my system by then so I can just submit my urine that has oxycodone in it?

So let me translate Gembo's post: " I have a prescription for Oxycodone but I am really just selling those pills that are prescribed to me to other people so I will test negative for what I am prescribed since I am selling all those to other addicts. Some of these oxycodone may end up in the hands of kids but HEY, I make $30 A PILL selling these so what do I care where they go after me? I insufflated an Oxymorphone last night because this is my drug of choice that I buy with all the money I make selling oxycodone to other addicts. "

Hi Dory,
I'm not a doctor but I will repeat what a doctor who did my drug test for a pre employment test told me two days ago. I asked why the tramadol did not show up on my 7 panel drug test. He replied "it will not show up because it is a synthetic drug and is NOT metabolized like opioids ( oxy,
codeine, percs Ect. He went on to say that they are looking for heroin mainly when they test for opioids.
Also, the test I took was in Edmonton, Alberta & it was sent to a lab to test.
I also take 300 mg per day but take nothing else .
I also contacted the drug maker and asked them If it could show up on a drug test. They emailed me back with the information that said "3 in 10 people using tramadol will have a false positive urine test."
Hope this helps! :-)

So even though tramadol is now a controlled substance......will it make you test positive if sent off for drug screen?

@post #6,

who are you to judge anyone. you dont know if he sold them. he might have just ran out. u are not god and have no right to talk about ppl like that. your screen name is a good one for u cause thats how u should feel about your self and the comments u make, and if he is selling them thats none of ur concern. is he trying to sell them to u? no! so mind ur own and find something to do with ur time.

I have experimented taking a 12 panel drug test (ordered from Amazon) at various intervals after tramadol consumption. I can say that my tests show that tramadol 50 mg DOES show up as an opiate for 2-3 days after taking it. after about 4 days, it is clear. I understand people saying it's not technically and opiate and you have to test for it specifically, but all I can say is that for my home tests it definitely did show up positive for opiates. word to the wise.

You cannot know if this person simply used more than prescribed. Tolerance builds and more becomes almost "necessary" for normality.

No, not necessary for normality but increasing the dose becomes necessary to keep getting high. Been down that road and it sucks. Better to get help, get clean, stop that never ending cycle

Read my post #1 dated Oct 29, 2013. I've worked in the drug testing industry for 16+ years and there aren't any rapid screening urine tests for Tramadol. Some labs might be able to test for it but there is not much call for testing for tramadol. Most labs only test for the main opioids and the extended opiates of which tramadol is not one. The lab I partner with (Omega Labs) does not test for it in a hair drug test.

KLM,
I'm not sure if it will where you live. I was told it is not metabolized like an opioid because it is synthetic. If you're unsure call the drug company and ask for more information. In Canada it is not a controlled substance.

I have a urine test on Friday and I'm taking 3 tramadol a day. I have taken lortab as well (5-7 pills altogether). Haven't taken any since Monday. Will it show up in my urine this Friday? If so, does tramadol show up as an opiate in urine samples? Thanks.

You're good, just don't take it the night before a test, as it could come up as a false positive.

Albert, The detection time for opiates in a urine drug screen is only a couple of days so I doubt if it will show up. If the urine test is like a home dip test most of those don't even test for Tramadol.

I have been seeing my pain management dr for over three years now and recently had an epidural for lower back pain. This month I took a few dosages of Tramadol and now I'm worried that it will show up in my urine screening. I see my dr this week and am running low on my Norco and the Tramadol seems to be an ok substitute to get me through. I live in Texas. Does anyone know if my screening will show Tramadol specifically? Thank you.

Charlotte, did you get any type of printed report. I would love to see it. The lab I partner with does not test for tramadol so it would never show up. Did the test actually say there was tramadol in your hair??
