False Urine Test And False Blood Teset?

Please answer this as soon as possible.

Can ranitidine cause a false positive in a blood test? I know it can in a urine test, my wife was tested positive in a urine test for amphetamines while taking ranitidine, but when her prescription ran out, it didnt. When she got it refilled, at her next appointment, she tested positive, and she had taken it on the drive up there. She's scheduled to see a social worker soon and we're sort of freaking out that we're going to lose our kids over it, so I suggested that she ask to have her urine and her blood tested at the same time, on the same day, to see if one shows up positive and the other doesn't.

What she needs to have done is a full, regular lab test and not the instant tests that most doctor's offices, or other testing agencies use, because those are the types that most often show the false positives.

Learn more Ranitidine details here.

The actual lab tests are much more precise and don't give false positives as often as the other instant read tests.

When does she have another test?
