i do not use cocaine but i have failed drug test for benzoylecognine (cocaine metabolite), i do have hep c and i use pain pills, is that a factor in my failing of my drug test?
Hey just wanna let u guys know I have been taking Milkthistle since I found out I had Hep C and not drinking ANY alcohol and now it is gone. Just had a blood test and I am totally cleared of the Hep C. Good luck to all of you:)
Yes, it depends on where you are being tested/if they are aware of you going to the clinic. Methadone clinics require drug tests they administer occasionally, as well as other people (P.O., doctor, etc.) being able to do this. This has happened to me before randomly at the methadone clinic I go to, and I have hepatitis C as well. But for all I know, it could have been either my Hep or a human error like a nurse testing someone else and putting it in as me. I wouldn't be terribly surprised, as they use numbers for ID of who you are. But by the average of numbers/probability, getting a positive on opiates (at the methadone clinic) is more likely to be caused by some catalytic factor such as Hep C or someone trying to f*** with you. It feels like the same thing sometimes though doesn't it? Note: I might also try drinking a little bit more water if you're feeling dehydrated (one of those side effect things)...
I failed for opiates at sub clinic when I haven't taken anything in months and i have hep c. Idk what it could be
It was probably lab error. Have them retest and if it still comes back the same see if you can get someone to track the chain of custody. I know personally of two instances where when they tracked the chain of custody human error at the lab was discovered. I had the same thing happen but for marijuana which I haven't used in 20 years.
Recently im at the methadone clinic due to opiate use (mostly heroin) I finally was able to get off all opiates for the first time in 2-3 years.. I tested negative 3 weeks in a row for everything then a positive for opiates and I never used for a month prior.no reason to lie here, no legal issues or any other reason to lie. I do have hep c though but don't think it should make anything like positive drug screen....
Lortab test as an opiate. It is pain medicine. It test as an opiate, I have drugs test for a stupid non drugs related issue and I have to take all medications to monthly meeting with pool so I don't get in trouble!!#
Loratab is not a benzo. It's a opiate. You can easily Google that and find that information. A benzo is like Xanax or ativan or something
I have the exact same problem except I came up for marijuana. My therapist used to work at a clinic and twice she had good, clean clients come up dirty. She called the lab and pestered them until they followed the chain of custody and twice in 3 years they found it was human error at the lab. I should get my results today of my first swab since the dirty one and I am terrified. I haven't used anything at all in a year. I got my take homes suspended because of this. I am really upset, when you do everything right and work hard to get and stay clean you should NOT have to worry about failing a drug test because of some other person's mistake! And because we are addicts nobody really cares. When I came up dirty I refused to leave the building until they urined me, which was of course clean, and I had a clean swab 2 weeks before. THC stays in you for 30 days. But they STILL wouldn't do anything. I am afraid my Hep C may have caused it. I guess I will find out today. I have been going down 2 mgs per week since this happened. My only real solution is get off methadone and don't ever put my life in control of any place. I was totally clean before and much better off. Methadone has caused severe depression and I need to get off it anyway. But your false test could have been lab error. Maybe someone at your clinic will care enough to have the lab track the chain of custody. Good luck, nobody at mine would bother.
Because oxycodone IS an opiate.that's why you are testing positive.
Tramadol is a highly addictive narcotic and will throw off a drug test. My husband was seriously addicted to it for five years. He now has serious medical and mental issues because of it. If you are a recovering addict I would seriously consider using tramadol everyone is different but it messed him up very bad.
Im having same problem hep.c and thc level
I was recently dx dor hep c deds say thc level hasnt droped much can that be reason
Lortab is hydrocodone, a semi synthetic opiate. Not a benzodiazepine whatsoever .
Methadone is NOT an opiate. It's a synthetic opioid not derived from morphine or codeine so it is without a doubt not the reason your failing for opiates . I know because I've been through it all before .
I have Hep-c I've been clean for 3 months every now and then I still get a pos for THC could the hep c cause that
i was taking 5 subutec a day everyday for about 8 months and i have been clean for 32 days but i still failed a urine screening i was told by the manufacture that it was because i have hep c where can i get this information on the web?
I recently tested positive for cocaine. I have hepatitis C and reflex sympathetic dystrophy. I take up to 45 mg of morphine. I take trazodone 200 mg and I take mirtazapine 45 mg a day. I also have a formula that has cocaine hydrochloride in it. would that be the reason why I tested positive? I got the cocaine hydrochloride about six years ago. I don't take it all the time but when the lidocaine that I put on my foot stops working I spring my foot with this cocaine hydrochloride. I no longer have a prescription for any. help in this matter would be greatly appreciated
