Drug Test For Lyrica Showed Up As Neurontin (Page 2)

Updated

I take a drug test for my pain doctor. I do NOT use any other meds other than what's subscribed by my pain Dr. The last test test showed up with neurontin in my urine. Please explain how that happened. Again I don't even take any over counter or anything not subscribed to me.

I think it depends on the specific test. Lyrica contains the active ingredient Pregabalin, whereas Gabapentin is the active ingredient in Neurontin. They are prescribed for similar reasons. You might find this article from PharmacyTimes helpful, though it is a bit technical: How Gabapentin Differs From Pregabalin

You are incorrect, gabapentin is the generic of neurotic. Lyrica is actually in the same family but not the same medication and in my experience much stronger
