What Does Ambien Show Up As On A Drug Test (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

Updated

May 20-26 I was in the hospital taking Ambien, ativan and cymbalta. Once I left the hospital I took my ambien sparingly. The ativan even less and no cymbalta at all. However on June 16 I took 1/2 10MG of Ambien. I had a saliva drug test that next morning and it came back as THC, Amphedimines and opiates. How did this happen??

Question for the pharmacy student, I'm an RN and work in a hospital and from what I understood is that like you said, the typical urine tox screen we do tests for amphetamines, but not typically methylphenidate. However, I recall learning that if the molecular structures are Similar between the two meds, one taking methylphenidate can have a positive screen for amphetamine. Same goes for phentermine and Dexedrine. The test isn't specifically looking for Dexedrine, but since the structure of it is so similar to that of amphetamine, certain tests will read Dexedrine positive as an amphetamine, or methylphenidate and phentermine as well.

I took more restoril than I should of and take oxycodone 40mg and 15mg and my urine test came back with hydrocodone in it and I 100% did not take hydrocodone so I ask my pain doc for a print out of my urine test she ask why I said I was going to the lab with my meds and test to find out she said she would talk to them. now my pain doc said that the lab said cause I had alot of restoril (sleep pills) in me there was a ingredient that could of cause hydrocodone to show up. and it happen AGAIN on rozerem (sleep pills) took extra so she had me do another urine test go see her in 8 days and I had no sleep meds in me so if it shows up something is going very WRONG cause I 100% have not taken hydrocodone. will be back on here with results.

When in reality, Ritalin does indeed show up on a drug screen as an amphetamine. I read urine drug screens all day long.

I have been taking ambian and celexa for two years. Will that show up on a drug urine test?

It happened because in addition the Ambien you took, you smoked weed, took Adderall or smoked methamphetamine, and also took opiates (hydrocodone or oxycodone). All in all sounds like a good night.

This is false information. Speaking as a person who works in a pain management office who administers UDS(s)... in the bottom section of our lab order we are required to check off any medications the patient is currently Rx'd. The list only includes meds that will make a person 'Pee dirty'. We test for Benzos, Barbiturates, Amphetamines, THC, Cocaine, Methamphetamine, Methadone, Oxy, and lastly Opiates. Ambien is the 2nd or 3rd medication listed on the lab order.

Yes you can test positive if your "man" does drugs. Only something he puts hp his nose though. It goes into his nose and into his saliva for an unknown amount of time and if you are kissing or whatever you do it can be transferred. I've never done drugs in my life other than smoking a little pot here and there in high school, I am now 8 months pregnant and back in January at 3 months, I tested positive for cocaine, this after my boyfriend went out and had a long night of partying the night before he came home and we were intimate... I tested positive at a doctors appt and was appalled I cried and couldn't figure out why.. After him,I and the doctor sat down we discussed all the possible reasons why and how and this is what happened. I called several drug programs around to see what they thought and all was verified as well. So I hope that answers your question. And clears some things up about that subject..

Yes, the brand name Ambien most definitely contains Zolpidem! Zolpidem is Ambien. Zolpidem is the generic or chemical name for Ambien. Lorazepam is Ativan.

You should've asked for a urine drug screen; I believe a UDS is fairly accurate, especially if there was a discrepancy in your saliva test.

no. you cannot get a positive drug test from your man if he takes drugs and you don't know anything about it. no way, no how, no freaking chance in the world did that happen. gracious.

Actually Concerta is not an amphetamine at all. Its time released Methylphenidate (aka generic Ritalin). It contains ZERO amphetamines. The two common ADHD meds that contain amphetamine are Adderall (amphetamine salts ) and Existence. Vyvanse does as well. As a 4th year pharmacy school student, I really wish people would stop posting stuff like this that they aren't entirely positive about. Concerta contains 0 amphetamines.

Concerta is methylphenidate, which is not, unlike other ADHD medications including Adderall and Vyvanse, a form of amphetamine. However, it is structurally similar, so it may show up as amphetamine on the test, or it might not, depending on the test; whereas Adderall or Vyvanse definitely will.
