A friend of mine is having a problem and her and her doctor cant figure out why so I thought I would put it out there and see if anything happens. She had a cocaine addiction for about 20 years. She is clean now. She hasn't done any kind of street drugs at all. It will be a year July 1st. She has been trying to get a job, but she keeps testing positve for cocaine. She hasn't used in almost a year! Her last false positive test was in April. She is on medication for Restless Leg Syndrome. She is currently taking Carbidopa/Levo 50/200 tb smyl. And she is also taking Valuim 4mgs at night. If anyone could give me any imput on this or if you have had the same experence it would be very helpful! Thank you in advance!

Maybe someone can help you, but I can't think of anything that can give a false positive on cocaine. Sorry.

Thank you anyway. She cant figure it out either so I hope she can get some answers here. She doesn't think it's her medications, but maybe someone else will know more about them.
