What Kind of Drug Test Shows a Positive Test for Heroin/methadone?

Question by Biking in 209: What kind of drug test shows a positive test for heroin/methadone?
My ex-wife is a heroin addict who is in methadone “treatment”. She is coming after my children that I have had 75% custody of since the seperation. She has told the court that she is in treatment, but family and friends state that she is currenty back on heroin and maybe abusing her methadone. My problem is that the county court’s drug test is a hair test and only shows up “opiates”. My lawyer is convinced that no other test will work. I am desperate to find a test that will either show heroin and methadone seperate, or will show she’s abusing her doses. This woman walked out of her family’s life and five years later has no job, income, and has another child out of wedlock. I have three children that are scared to death to be with her, and when they do, they always come back emotionally scarred. Please help! Thanks

Answer by Diangelo Martina
Antidepressants

Patients taking common drugs for depression can yield false-positives for amphetamines, such as bupropion, or Wellbutrin, and fluoxetine, also known by the brand name Prozac, according to Rapuri and colleagues. If subjects actually are taking amphetamines, the drug stays in the urine for up to two days, say Drs. Gifford Lum and Barry Mushlin in their June 2004 article for “Laboratory Medicine.” In addition, they say for patients actually taking benzodiazepines, the evidence stays in the urine for up to 21 days.

In a study by Kevin M. Nasky, D.O. and colleagues, reported in the journal “Psychiatry” in 2009, the researchers found 26 patients who tested positive for benzodiazepines were actually false positives for patients taking sertraline, or Zoloft.
