Flexeril absolutely does show up on a drug screen as an anti-deppressent. Anyone who says otherwise should not be commenting on something that they know nothing about

As someone was saying earlier. If yuou don't have a prescription to flexeril I'd not take it and that way you wouldn't have to worry. It will show up. I'm an RN with critical care certification and now work in substance abuse so I do know what I'm talking about. Every educated person on this thread is correct. It will show up as false positive for tricyclic and further show to be Flexeril. It's pretty ridiculous for folks with zero medical experience think they can tell those with professional experience in this that they are wrong and don't talk about what you don't know. Tests are different but that is the answer to the question, so, no prescription, don't take it unless you want to possibly be questioned as to why you have a prescription drug in your system without the prescription itself.

RN Says:
That's not a very wise think to tell people to take a drug that is not prescribed to them. It's illegal. Again, all drug tests are different. As a health care professional, they test for everything.

You are wrong about that. 10 and 12 panel Urine screens test for benzodiazepines (anti depressant) and flexeril will show in the TCA catagory (antidepressants)

Pre employment urine tests are only 5 panels just like a dot test, which I've been tested by dot for 18 years and muscle relaxers do NOT show up on urine 5-panel tests! Anyone who says different is full of s***!

if flexerill stays in your system for 3.75 days does that mean you are still under the influence. Can it effect your judgment

Re: dj35 (# 1)
Flexeril can make a false positive show up on blood test. I went to the doctor a month ago for routine pregnancy visit and had been put on flexeril a couple days before at an urgent care. I had to do blood work at my pregnancy visit and went back today (a month later) and doctor said my blood results came back positive since I was on the flexeril....

Pete, it's a 14 panel. Do your homework! I have run these tests as well! Wow! You really do have a drug problem. I'm curious what your occupation is besides acting like you know about what RN's do. Try and work in critical care! What a joke!! Flexeril is not a controlled substance; however it can trigger a false positive for TCA. Do your homework, and get off the drugs dude!

Yes they do test for TCA in urine. It is quite common in our ER. Oh I am a MLT too, so I know.

OB Nurse Says:
Re: ckala (# 42)
Came back “positive” for what? I am a Obgyn nurse and run blood work daily but we must order what we want to test for. The only reason we would run a drug panel is IF we suspected a patient was using drugs that endangered the fetus and had not disclosed that to us. You are either flagged as a high risk patient for drug abuse (that’s not judgment— if so TELL your doctor they can help protect Mom and baby) or you are having symptoms that the doctor can’t diagnose so testing for drugs to see if that is the issue. But drugs of any kind don’t show up on regular blood tests or urine tests for prenatal visits.

I see a pain management Dr. and just got in trouble because it did NOT show up in my pee during a drug test... I had to argue with him that I AM taking them and he kept saying they are not showing up!!! So... At least with me it did NOT show in a pee test and this test covers Everything!! They charge me 1200.00 each time I am tested!

GaNurse2004 Says:
Stan, I just had a pre-employment drug screen which tested for TCAs. That is how I ended up on this thread (google search for why an employer would test for TCAs). I mean, luckily for me, I don't take medications that aren't prescribed to me, so I was good anyway. But, just in case someone comes across your misinformation - if you have taken anything you don't have a current script for - save yourself time and the prospective employer money. Keep your a$$ at home, keep clean and then there is no worry.
