Common Questions and Answers about Detection of methadone in urine

methadose

Avatar m tn t take long at all for methadone to show up in your urine...most meds taken in pill form are dissolved within 45 minutes, so I would think it would show up by then if not even sooner. It's too bad that so many people misuse/sell medications and then try to scam doctors...legit pain mgt patients are the ones who usually pay the price.
Avatar n tn For example, heroin and cocaine can only be detected for a few hours after use, but their metabolites can be detected for several days in urine. In this type of situation, we will report the (longer) detection times of the metabolites. NOTE 1: Oral fluid or saliva testing results for the most part mimic that of blood. The only exceptions are THC and benzodiazepines. Oral fluid will likely detect THC from ingestion up to a maximum period of 6–12 hours.
Avatar n tn t remember exactly how long before, but thinks it was within 3 days) she took 5 mg of Methadone and 25 mg of Phenergan, one time only each. Will those drugs show on the drug screen?

The accuracy and reliability of relatively inexpensive POC screening assays are limited; although, more costly laboratory-performed assays can be of higher quality. B.
Avatar n tn I'm perplexed. I've had 4 back surgeries, permanent nerve damage, torn miniscus in my knee, degenerative disk disease & arthritis in my back/knee/hip etc. I take four 325 per day of oxycodone aka percocet. I've been with my Dr. for 19 years! Today I was told NO medicine at all showed up in my urine. I've never failed a test in almost 20 years.
Avatar f tn I would tell your doctor just to be safe and relief your anxiety about it. is it a routine urine test or are they looking to see if you took drugs? Just be honest especially since you are pregnant.

Avatar m tn m not sure on this one but I would definately get something in writing from your methadone clinic stating that you are a patient of theirs in a legal program, just in case.
Avatar m tn Hello there. I am not sure, but I believe your dr. is checking for the presence of your medication in your urine. I don't think that the concentration of the meds can be detected in urine, but would be confirmed by a blood test. Good luck!
Avatar n tn i had the normal oxycodone in my system. could the meth in prometh and the done in oxycodone show up as methadone , it oviosly can because i didnt take any methadon.please reply asap.
Avatar f tn On the twentieth I had one bit of clearish discharge when I wiped in the bathroom with a streak of dark blood in it (implantation?). I had mild cramping the twentieth- current. As of the past 5 days I have been nauseous, have heartburn, broke severely in odd places (back, shoulders, neck), have mild cramping, mood swings, flushed face, etc. I went to Dr. and had a test today... neg. of course. They do not have early detection tests and said even if I was pregnant they wouldn't know.
Avatar f tn HI there & welcome! Thanks for reaching out. So, can you tell us how long ago you left the urine without methadone metabolites in it? Also, what's your previous urine record like & your relationship w/ your counselor & clinic? (This might make all the difference in how this goes for you!) If you haven't gotten your results back yet you have time to come clean to them in a fully humble & honest manner it would probably weigh heavily in your favor. Yup!
Avatar m tn The infection that was detected in my first analysis of urine has cleared up no detection of leukocytes in urine, so it surely was not a STD? What do you think? The doctor has given me antibiotics as I explained that I still have a little burning when urinating, he has given me ciproflaxin 500mg twice a day for 10 days, and if the symptoms don´t disappear to go back to the doctors. The doctor is 100% certain there is no STD infection.
Avatar f tn Was the valium prescribed by another doctor?
Avatar n tn However, it does not rule out the possibility of the blood in urine having originated in the upper urinary tract, such as the kidney or ureter. Adderall has not been reported to cause any significant renal complications or prostate-related abnormalities, so the causative factors may be alcohol abuse and/or masturbation, if too frequent. Hematuria, even if microscopic, needs medical evaluation if the number of cells are in excess of the normal number acceptable in urine.
Avatar m tn Its possible that if your dates are correct, you could take an early detection test like EPT. Make sure the test happens in the morning with the 1st urine of the day, as that will have a higher concentration of hormone if she's pregnant. If you get a negative, dont fret and test again in 5-7 days.
Avatar f tn Please help me find a doctor in Massachusetts that writes for methadone for my chronic pain and Ms my Dr was killed last year and now I had to go to methadone clinic and I have to go to work and can't keep doing meetings and standing in line for a dose but I'm in excruciating pain all day and night I can't sleep most nights I cry myself to sleep almost 90% of time
Avatar m tn I am fairly certain I started the exchange based on the timing of my mess-up, typical incubation periods for NGU, and the start of my symptoms. At the start of my symptoms I was tested postitive for NGU at a clinic and treated. The symptoms subsided After treatment, I had sex with my wife, and after the same incubation period, the symptoms returned.
Avatar n tn Hi! Congratulations on your pregnancy. I, too, live in MA & an 3.5 + mos. clean off Methadone/Subutex. I'm familiar with both drugs. Suboxone is listed as a Category C drug (adverse effects in lab animals.) Methadone is considered safe for pregnancy. Since you are already on it, your OBGYN might want to switch you to Subutex w/o the Nalaxone in it. Here are some links:http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=y3x_ZXyix-M#t=87s (Buprenorphine warning) http://en.
Avatar n tn How are you? Calcium oxalate crystals in the urine are the most common constituent of human kidney stones. Also, blood in the urine can be caused by a lot of things. Some are serious, including cancers, trauma, stones, infections, and obstructions of the urinary tract. Others are less important and may require no treatment. These may include viral infections, nonspecific inflammations of the kidney, medications and benign prostate enlargement.
Avatar f tn does long term use of methadone affect you bladder i seem to want to wee all the time and its getting worse?
Avatar f tn I had one instance of unprotected sex in mid/early december and about 4-6 days later I had about 8 lesions on my penis as well as the penis head being tender with an off-white/yellowish discharge. There was also a painful/burning sensation when peeing. I saw a Dr. a week later who said the lesions looked like herpes and the discharge was probably bacterial so he sent me to get tested, both urine and blood. The results came back negative across the board (herpes included).
Avatar f tn I am 27 and have had 3 healthy babies by age 24 and had a tubal ligation and ablation. Well In January I started having very tender breasts and leakage from breasts as well as TONS of other pregnancy symptoms.....It might have even started sooner then that. I took a urine pregnancy at work and it was negative and I repeated it on 2/1/12 and again negative.
Avatar n tn do we have ANY rights here? DO people ON Methadone Maintenance of Suboxone HAVE any rights with regards to how we are treated and if we have put together all these years of compliance with not just urine screens but groups, counseling attendance (ALL SPOTLESS!) and behavioral issues, etc why can't we get ONE benefit of the doubt?
