ambien

Avatar f tn What sort of drug screen is it? Urine? Blood? I havent smoked marijuana in a while but im still curious as to whether or not I need to be worried.
Avatar f tn Could Hepatitis C cause a false dirty drug screen? NO. 2 dirty screens - one October 15th and the second November 10th The odds are against her. Common testing systems are 99% accurate. For the test to fail twice is pretty much impossible odds. Ambien can be addictive and should never be shared with another person, especially someone who has a history of drug abuse or addiction. Not only is this bad for her but is not good for the baby. What Might Happen to the Baby?
1238606 tn?1304201621 I have a prescription for ambien 10mg. In drug court they dont let u take hardly anything not even tylenol PM. But i want to take ambien for a few nights just to get some sleep. Does anyone know if this is something that a basic panel drug screen will catch. I know they don't specificly test for ambien but wondering if if might test postive for something else. Has anyone ever taken it and took drug test. I know I probley shouldnt' go against drug court but my sanity is at stake...
Avatar f tn Can anyone tell me if Tramadol will sow up in a Health Care Professionals urine drug screen? And if so, how long will it take for it not to? In other words, how long does Tramadol stay in your system?
1379106 tn?1279033147 re probably only doing a general screen. You can easily test negative if you drink a lot water and the urine is very diluted. That counts as a "flush" in drug testing terms and is usually an automatic fail. You'll need to try to find intelligent life at the lab to explain to you exactly what they've been told to look for. They might also be able to shed more light on why false negatives can crop up than the doctor can. Another possibility is lab errors.
Avatar f tn I was given a urine drug screen last night that tested positive for benzos. I have not been on any tranquilizers! My current medication regime includes Effexor XR 150mg bid, Seroquel 200mg, taking 400mg qhs, Betaseron 1cc qod subq. I was put on Bactrim last week bid for 5 days for a urinary tract infection. In May, June and part of July I was taking Trazdone 200mg qhs, but then switched back to Seroquel 200mg, taking 400mg qhs. I am confused as to what caused the positive test for benzos?
1428440 tn?1287390379 Although fairly controversial, i have read of people who have failed pre employment drug screens even though they consumed no narcotics. Ambien or lunesta was the common denominator in many of these stories. Whilst both are not true benzos but a 'z 'class hypnotic,sedative,anxiolytic,they have similar properties to benzos and tickle the same receptor sites.
Avatar f tn Dehydration will not effect a drug screen either. It is not rare for a urine drug screen to be in error. Unfortunately like so many other ppl that have erroneous drug screen there really is no recourse for you. I wish I had better answers for you. Talk to the HR Department or your boss. Ask for more information. I too am curious as to what was found in your urine. Good luck to you.
221387 tn?1210933058 If your asking if you can fail a drug test by taking over the counter unisom the answer is no. I used to work in a clinic where we did random and pre-employment drugscreens for many area companies including the hospital where we were located. A drug screen tests for marijuana,cocaine,PCP,benzodiazipene and meth.
Avatar f tn I have been with my Dr for 7 yrs. Never has she asked for a Urine Drug Screen. Last month I called in to get a refill on my Percocet and she told me I needed to do a Random Urine Drug Screen. I went and the nurse calls me to inform me that the Dr will no longer be able to give me any more Percocet or Klonopin seems my Urine Drug Screen showed that I was negative for both drugs. I told her I had taken 2 Percocet the day before and I take my Klonopin daily before bed.
10363722 tn?1409603189 I borrowed one of her percoset that are 10 milligrams. I went to the doctor a couple days later and had to do a random urine drug screening. I am scared to death now. What happens if that percocet shows up? Will they totally take me off of all my pain meds? Are they likely to give me a second chance?this is not a typical thing that I do. I really need to be on my pain meds as I work two jobs and I'm on my feet all the time.any insight on this would be appreciated.
Avatar m tn there are expensive screens that can differentiate but i would tend to think it would not show up on a standard 5 panel screen....i do know someone who paseed their drug screen/5 panel where i work..she is a nurse on sub/with a scrip but did not want to get into the addiction thing so she did not say she took it....it came back ok...if it woulda come back bad..then she was gonna say something...
Avatar n tn Hello Lass,First off is this just routine,or is their some reason of diversion like due you work as a nurse ,and if so,are they checking only you or are you on a Methadone program and all they want to know is there any hydrocodone in yopur system to bebin with,as same not so bright addicts say that they are on this and that and when they run a urine screen,nothing shows up,even the drug that they say is their drug of choice.
Avatar f tn After looking at the quest diagnostic site (which is where I am going) I became more paranoid because it talks about blood test with and without confirmation urine. My script just says urine drug and alcohol screening and I think the blood work is just for my viral load, AFP, CBC W/Diff, CMP (chem 14), PT/PTT. I don't really know what all of this is but the bottom line is I have to get treatment and I don't want to risk being denied. I need to just talk to my doctor.
Avatar n tn I've reduced my klonopin to 1mg daily for about 4 days now. What will happen if I just stop taking it altogether? How long will it take to get out of my system? I have to take a drug screen soon and don't want this to show up in drug screen. Thanks in advance for any suggestions !
Avatar f tn There is a blood test that could be done in place of an in office screen, but as I said, typically, when there is an office screen, that urine is also sent out for confirmatory testing, which looks for all of the metabolites of the opiate as it is broken down in the body to measure compliance. There is very, very little false negatives or false positives in gc/ms or immunoassay testing. I am sorry you are going through this.
Avatar f tn Was the urine sent out for confirmatory testing or was this an in office screen? When was the last dose taken in relation to the test? It’s possible for an in office screen to have a false positive/negative result, due to cut off thresholds, but most pm offices send out urine for quantitative/confirmatory testing after an in office result.
Avatar f tn Go to another facility and pay if you must for the blood drug screen or better yet demand one from the facility that has required the urine drug screen. We have rights too. I sincerely hope that your concern is for not. If it does return inaccurately you will be forced to find another physician. So be prepared to start your search immediately. I wish you the very best. Please keep in touch with us and let us know how you are doing. I will look forward to hearing from you.
Avatar m tn You and I know - as does your physician - that when you take opiates they show up in your UDS (Urinary Drug Screen) - yet yours didn't. I do believe you - what reason do you have to be untruth to a group of strangers? What could it get you? I can explain (to some degree) why different metabolites show up in a UDS than one might anticipate - I can't explain why one has a negative, or false UDS when they are taking opiates.
1444883 tn?1289602570 To try to make a long story short: After my Pain Doc of 2 years exhausted all treatment options, he referred me to my Primary to prescribe my 2 Lortabs a day, which I'd taken for years, and she asked for blood tests & a drug screen first…No prob, except the screen came out Negative on the Lortab, & also on the Klonopin that she had been prescribing me for years…She then refused my meds as well as any additional tests.
