False Positive For Opiates After Taking Dilaudid?
UpdatedCan Dilaudid cause a false-positive for any other opiate?

Yes, dilaudid can actually cause a false-positive for any other opiate, and vise versa, depending on the quality of the drug test.
On the cheaper, less reliable drug tests, it seems as though anything is likely to show up, no matter what you took. They have the choice to use better drug testing equipment, such as a gas chromatograph mass spectrometer; which has the ability to distinguish the exact substance in question. They just don't use it as often due to costs. So they would rather take the high risk of displaying a misreading than take a few extra dollars out of their pocket.
I hope this helps to answer your question!
