I copied this excerpt from an article I recently read.
"Laboratory slip-ups are to blame for many of the mistaken test results. But even perfect labs running perfect tests will also find many false positives.
False positives are caused by:
* Nasal decongestants such as Dristan, Neosynephren, V
icks Nasal Spray, and Sudafed, which cause false positives for amphetamines.
* Poppy seeds like those on a dinner roll, which cause false positives for opiates. Even the highest-quality test currently available, the GCMS test, still confuses poppy seeds with heroin.
* Pain relievers such as Advil, Nuprin, Midol, Trendar, or any medicine containing Ibuprofin cause false positives for marijuana.
* Antibiotics such as amoxicillin or ampicillin cause false positives for cocaine.
