If my boyfriend is prescribed Suboxone and I have unprotected sex with him,
could my urine drug test be positive for Suboxone?
Does Suboxone transfer through sperm?

Actually it does show up on drug tests after unprotected sex with a Suboxone user. My husband takes it and we had sex 2 days before my doctors visit. On this visit I was informed that my urine came back positive for Suboxone. I don’t take it at all. Also, Suboxone is on the 12 panel.

Id say no, I dont have any technical info to support this but I dont think any medications can get transfered through sperm. Much less, even if it was possible, I dont see how there would be any possibility of it being enough to show on a drug test. Plus another thing that helps you is no normal drug test would test for Suboxone. So all in all, I dont think you have anything to worry about

Agreed. Even if she herself took the sub, they would have to specifically mark a box for her to be tested for it. Let alone this is not even a normal "transfer" of this med. So yes, I agree 100%.
