URGENT PLEASe HELP!

[carson9]

I am tested by a 7 panel drug screen which I know for a fact, and was wondering if hydrocodone would metabolize into anything which would cause a positive result?

Also I have researched this a bit prior to posting this and cant come up with a clear answer as to what exactly hydrocodone metabolizes into..

thanks for your help

quick note---The test is not sent to a lab.

Yes. It will come up in most tests of that nature. But all you need to do is show them your prescription and explain why you have it.

If you don't have a script, then you may have bigger problem than the drug test.

If you have a script they can test to see how much you take. It goes through your system pretty quickly though. I passed a test within 3 days

The company that I work for test to see that you have no more than you are prescribed in your system. Not sure how they do this but it states in our employee handbook that they do.

What they say and what they do are 2 different things. Opiates don't last long in your system so I don't think the levels will be accurate

I still see all this stuff that says hydrocodone breaks down into hydromorphone so it wont show up as an opiate..is that incorrect?

Carson... I have been on both sides. I have tested in a lab and I have used Vicodins like they were buttered popcorn at a movie.. To the best of my knowledge Hydro CODONE will not convert to MORPHONE. Although they are opiates, one is a synthetic codiene (CODONE) and one is a derivative of morphine (morphone)...... However, the test can most definetly measure amount taken. I once lost a great job that I was offered because of that. They offered me a job, I took the test, script and all and then I was informed my levels were off the chart..... All my best........CA

ok so all the stuff i see about hydrocodone not coming up as an opiate...is incorrect?

Not sure about this topic but Hydrocodone and Hydromorphone are two completely different opiates. Hydromorphone is Dilaudid. Way stronger in potency. Just to quickly clarify.

hydrocodone IS AN OPIATE...... But there are different types of opiates.. Think of it this was. An Apple is an Apple, but there are different types of Apples...
