I go to a doctor and I have on many occasions had a false positives for methamphetamines but when they send it to the lab it's never really in my system.. I am very confused as I haven't used drugs in 5yrs. I am a recovering addict.. I take several medicines. I take omeprazol 40mg, ranitidine 300mg, citalopram hbr 20mg, hydroxyzine hcl 10mg, lisinopril 5mg and suboxone 8mg. I have even stopped drinking red bull because I thought that was the problem.. I am at a loss for words. I do not understand how or why I could have so many false positives but every time they send it to the lab it's never really there... Can anyone please tell me what could be causing this??? I am one who prefers mt.dew over water and I'm a full-time stay at home mom that wants nothing more then to be a good mom and wife and one who does not want to look back at the things I use to do.. Help me understand this please

It is the ranitidine. If you call Zantac (their main company though, I forgot the name) put ur phone on speaker and record it. Ask for the nurse on duty, she will verify that it does, but refuses to release info to the public. She will talk to medical personnel strictly to verify that it causes false positive. It is irresponsible for Zantac to not be warning people. I for one had some of the most traumatic events happen to me as a direct result of being labeled a drug user not once but TWICE (4 yrs apart, I only became aware of the ranitidine false positive after the last time)
