Fentanyl And Drug Screens
Updatedi am prescribed the fentanyl 25mcg, and today my dr gave me a urine screen. i noticed that the cup had two bars on it, one said OPI for opiates i assume, and another that said OXY. my results were positive for both. I had taken a percocet that is not prescribed to me, so i thought i was in big trouble, but my doctor didnt even mention it!!!! My question is this: How does fentanyl show up on a drug screen, and whats the deal with the drug screen having seperate OXY and OPI test bars??

Fentanyl is an opiate narcotic, so it will show up as such.
They are allowed to test for whatever they want, which you agreed to when you began treatment with them and they usually do test for other substances, such as Oxycodone, to make sure you aren't abusing other medications while under treatment.

It is not advisable to continue using medications that are not prescribed for you. In this case, your doctor may have thought it was an anomaly, as it sometimes happens, they get false positives, but if it continues, you very well may find yourself with a problem.
Is there anything else I can help you with?
Since Fentanyl is made of a combination of different pain meds, what would show up on a drug test?
