Common Questions and Answers about Suboxone in drug test

suboxone

Avatar n tn I had 3 different drug test this week and all were negative including a hair follicle test. But when I go to my suboxone Dr I seem to test for TCA the past 2 times Ive been there but when it's sent to the lab it comes back negative and the only thing in my system is suboxone. Idk if this helps anyone but for some reason i think the tests may have a defect. If it does it again my next office visit I will be questioning them about their tests.
Avatar f tn I just started on suboxone and my doctor drug tests me regularly. The first test I took I tested positive for opiates, but the results said "inconsistent" next to it. When the test was taken, it had been 8 days since my last dose so nothing should've shown up. What does the "inconsistent" result mean?
Avatar f tn You could ask your doc if it is ok to take suboxone with the new meds since it is a prescription and not a street drug. If suboxone is not compatible with the new meds then your doc can prescribe you with something else.
Avatar f tn suboxon can and does show up as an opiate on a drug screen however you have to specifically test for it, same with methadone, when i took someone close to me to get a drug test i was shocked that the professionals at a private doctors office that advertise drug screnings did not know that it took a specialty test, so we walked out and i went downtown to talk to an er doctor i used to work with, he gave my friend the test and sure enough suboxone was in her system, also when i was in a custody ba
545899 tn?1215217477 I am about to try and get a job as an electrician and even though the oxy's I'm on right now are prescribed for tapering they can't hire me because they may inhibit my ability to do the job safely. I know they won't but anyway... Does suboxone show up as anything on a urine test for jobs and such? Basically I want to know if I can get a decent job on suboxone or should I go grab a spatula at wendy's till I'm off of them?
Avatar m tn But I never went to a doctor for my suboxone so I really dont know a lot about the drug (crazy right). Well I have a very close relative of mine who needs to know how long suboxone stays in your system. They havent took sub ever before but did for the first time on April 29 taking 2mg and on April 30 taking another 2mg, then never took it since. They have a drug test on May 28 and they are very nervous that this sub will show up.
Avatar f tn Thanks guys I think I knew the answer before I asked... I just wanted a little re-enforcement. Joes urine test came up with oxy bummer we will move on though. I will talk to him about it tomorro, It only took me 8 or 10 hours to figure it out.
Avatar f tn When I seen your message I was shocked 24 mg of suboxone is alot of suboxone. the most I took was 8 mg and went down to 2 mg. probably depends on what drugs you were on. That seems to be alot of meds for a day. I thought $200 dollars a month was alot for my suboxone. You should definitely talk to your docter.
Avatar m tn Sub doctors have a special test for this drug. At this point in time, it is not available to employment screens as it is very specific and very expensive. With time this will change, but not at this time you have a prescription correct? If it showed up, u would be ok? I do understand not wanting to broadcast u r on sub...unlike methadone, it is not an approved pain med in the US. It is only approved for addiction so saying u r on it is a dead give-away good luck getting ur job..
Avatar f tn On most stardard drug tests, suboxone will not show up. You would have to specifically test for it. In the past, I was drug test several times when working in a hospital and it always came back clean.
Avatar f tn Any drug test has to be designed to pick up suboxone and I believe the tests administered by DSS aren't designed to pick that up. All opiates metabolize differently and the test has to be specifically designed to test for the drug in question or you're home free.
Avatar f tn Hello people the purpose is to get you off opiates not give you more. When getting drug tested they must specifically test for suboxone if getting tested for a job or something like that they will most likely not give you the seperate test for it its very expensive but if being tested for the court or probation they 99% of the time test for it I know this bc I get drug tested by the court and have been tested for suboxone every single time.
Avatar n tn Got to the Suboxone website and do your research. You can also find doctors there in your area who are certified to prescribe. Good luck hun.
Avatar m tn I have had three major back surgeries for which I was using strong opioids for two years. Started taking 16mg of Suboxone, Worked that down to 2mg and now I cut the tab in half for 1mg per day. Can a pharmacist custom make me even smaller doses so I can completely rid myself of taking this medication? Suboxone is very potent so a small does goes a long way, I need to find a way to take it is still smaller doses so I can stop taking it without getting sick. Any ideas?
Avatar n tn if my son took an opiate while taking his suboxone will he test positive for opiates on a reg 10 panel drug screen? since suboxone blocks opiates in body will it block it on urine UDS.
Avatar n tn Suboxone will likely show up on a drug test. Be sure to show your employer that you have a valid prescription for the medication from your health care provider.
522370 tn?1212430485 his drug of choice is heroin and some of his so called friend gave him suboxone it was to help him with the cravings but after the pills they gave him he went right back to heroin..............i guess my question is i am not a fan of suboxone it seems to be a drug in its self and has withdrawls too..................
2198453 tn?1343244740 Next rule of thumb do not take suboxone from any doctor seek out a psychologist who is specialized in suboxone. I see my psychologist every single week. I have to take a UA before I get any kinds of meds. This last appointment I of course was clean and I was miserable in tears had not slept high blood pressure. Thank god my doctor is as great as he is that he prescribed me something to help me to have bowl movements, and klonapine to help me sleep.
190885 tn?1333025891 hey billy...is this girl in2 opiates and buying suboxone off street to try to get clean and avoid withdrawal from opiates?or is she just using the suboxone?if ur not an addict to use it alone u'll get real high off it and most likely real sick!
Avatar m tn Also the only comprehensive test I have found that test for sub is a twelve panel test is this true or do they have a ten panel test that tests for suboxone? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to figure out if I have to get off the med.
Avatar f tn Ask for a blood test. It is the most accurate. Are you looking to come off of Suboxone?
Avatar f tn It all depends on the type of test they would be testing you with! Most drug screenings test for all of them. But some places only test specifically for suboxone subutex and opiates. I would just call up to the doctor office and ask, u dont necessarily have to give them your name if u ask a generic question such as that!
