Will Roxycodone & Oxycodone Show up different in a Blood Drug Test!

[mooba]

can urine test show specific types of opiates that you used? If you normally take percocet and have taken vicodin will it show the two types?

That's bull- you can't tell one opiate from another on a regular panel screen. You can tell the difference between an opiate and an opioid, which is metadone and demeral, but not between hydrocodone and oxy codone and codine. If they really wanted to they would send it to a mass spectrometer which would probably only be done if it was a murder case, or CSI got involved. So besides the movies, your safe!!!

I guess the smell of bull$hit has flowed in here too. The drug test consortium I have set up for my company collects a sample, and splits it into 2 vials. If the first tests positive with the panel test, the 2nd goes to the GCMS machine for a breakdown. No murder or CSI. It's done every day, and this is only for truck drivers.

I'm looking for an educated response here since I'm gettin' mixed signals b/w Nicalla and pdog. I just took a pre-employment drug test (standard panel-5 via Labcorp). I'm clean as far as herbs, coke, and all others except I do have dilemma. I have a prescription for Vicuprofen (Hydrocodone 7.5 mgs) but not for Roxicodone and I did take a couple roxi's on Sunday and Monday (test was Tuesday). What I want to know is simply this: If I fail Opiates screening would it suffice to just provide my Vicuprofen prescription or could the Roxi vs. Hydro distinction be made. Please keep in mind this is simply a standard, pre-screening urine test--not something having to do with a a high security job (e.g. pilot) or criminal case where there may be more stringent testng. PLEASE Advise. I did mention it to the employer and they said they didn't think it was a big deal (perhaps just testig for MJ and Coke?). Any help is appreciated.

Theres no definitive answer here, man. It all depends on your employers requirements, and the contract they have with LabCorp.

i have a docotors check up in 2 days and i have been doing coke,weed,and ecstacy.will it show up? even tho its just a check up??!!

Are you kidding? A checkup usually doesn't involve urinalysis. If it does, it's usually just to measure sugar levels, and check for blood in the urine.

[43ocain]

can a drug test which involves breaking down levels of use,tell the difference between hydrocodone and oxycodone?..

if its just a checkup then the only thing the doc will test your pee for is protein. unless he has suspicions your on drugs. just go in sober and you will be fine.

I am wondering how long a roxycodone stays in your system for a urinalysis?

[Bo_Dillin]

It depends on the type of drug test they give you. Some test for individual drugs while other are more broad. The typical urine test is:

Opiods
Includes: Heroin, Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, Demerol, Darvocet, Morphine, Fentyl, Oxy Morphone, Ext...

Benzodiazapines:
Includes: XANAX, Clonxapan, Valume, ect...

Methadenphadamines
Includes: Cocaine, Crystal Meth, Speed, ect...

THC - Marijuana

And a few others i think i may be missing. But like i said, it will either test for the class of drug or can be more specific and pinpoint a drug. The more acurite it is the higher the cost usually is.

Depending on your metabolism and how much you use the average is about 2-3 days becauseit is water soluable.

I take drug tests for parole, and I have a script for lortab 7.5 120 a month. I tell me I fail every test, but it's ok because I have a script. Recently a friend has been giving me some oxycodone 30's for when the pain is bad, but I'm worried they will be able to make a distinction on parole drug screen. CAN they tell the difference between my hydrocodone and the oxycodone??? It's important for me to get a definitive answer.

[Bo_Dillin]

Depends weather you porole officer is testing for specifics or not. To be safe I wouldnt take any oxycodone within 4 or 5 days of your test and only your loratabs.

Or you can either take your friends oxycosone and see what happens the day of your test.

[Jenny]

meth also includes adderall so if you have a script for that tell them

Definitive man, yes they can. The only variables are what type of test and how extensive the tests will be, but to be safe, they CAN tell the difference. For example, I ran a drug testing program for the safety department where I worked. When I changed to a new lab to screen our tests, the representative gave me about 10 different options of how far we wanted to go in the screening process, starting with a simple 5 panel screen, all the way to GS/MS screening for all samples which will break down each and every drug and tell you exactly the concentration, basically telling us what drug and how much was taken. We use the option that all specimens are tested at the site for ph, specific gravity, creatine level, temperature, and dilution. That makes sure that it's real pee from the start. Then it is split into bottles sealed, and shipped to the lab in Kansas. Then they test the first sample with the standard NIDA-5 panel test which will not reveal oxycodone unless it is a huge concentration. If the specimen test positive for anything on this test, they will call the employee and ask about any prescriptions, and the employee will have to provide proof of a recent Rx. They will then take the 2nd sample they have and test it on a GC/MS machine and compare the results to the Rx information to determine if the Rxs go with what the test reveals, and the GC/MS will catch everything. This is done to comply with US federal regulations for the department of transportation, so I'd imagine that parole being state level government the protocol would be similar.

Ok, sounds like you definitely know what you're talking about. I don't want to be breaking the law anymore - got into trouble for something small and did a month in prison - not for me! Less than a year left on parole and I'm not trying to screw it up! I'll stick to my pain meds even when it's bad. I've been to my doc, and he just doesn't want to hear about adjusting my meds at all. He wants to send me to a pain clinic, but I don't have any insurance - I'm just in a bind. BUT, better free - hurting - and in a bind... than locked up. Thanx for taking the time to answer man.

[Elipsion]

Not that I don't believe the post from RoxiMan, but I was doing some research just to find out at what levels they would be able to detect Oxycodone use in your urine. I was able to find a very technical page about testing for Oxycodone use, and if anyone is interested here is the URL: http://www.aacc.org/NR/rdonlyres/B0E394AA-902...

It seems to me, although most of the info on this page is very technical and hard to understand, that they are saying even with GC/MS testing - regular therapeutic levels of Oxycodone use do now show up unless using one of the two special methods developed by the two labs mentioned. Personally, I'm not going to risk it... but for someone worried about a little in there system who is just taking a test for a job or something... looks like you're in the clear for sure. Anyway - thought I would share the information... maybe some of you can make more sense of the info on this page than me and put it to some good use.

No problem man. Don't get locked up over eating a couple pills, just keep working to find a doctor thats willing to help you achieve what you need as far as pain relief, it could take a while, but they are out there. It took me 5 years of bullshit to find mine. Also your other post, I looked over the page and it's pretty accurate, only it's from 2003. Drug testing changes rapidly due to so many people trying to beat it. Most all the labs have teams of scientists doing research and development full-time. Heres a link from a manufacturer of spot tests we use. If you read through the info you'll see how easy it has gotten to detect the stuff http://www.craigmedical.com/oxycodone.htm Good luck man, and stay out of trouble.

how long does oxycontin stay in your blood for a blood test

[Oxymoron]

General Opioid Information
Below is a by no means exhaustive list of several opioids including brand names;
Natural (known as opiates):
Morphine
Codeine
Semi-Synthetic (known as opioids):
Heroin
Hydrocodone (Hycodan)
Hydromorphone (Dilaudid)
Meperidine (Demerol)
Oxycodone (Percodan)
Synthetic (also known as opioids):
Fentanyl (Sublimaze)
Methadone (Dolophine)
Propoxyphene (Darvon)
Pentazocine (Talwin)

Some Terms
opiate - narcotic analgesic derived from a natural source(opium poppy)
opioid - narcotic analgesic that is either semi or fully synthetic
- also refers to entire family of both opiates and opioids
IM - intramuscular injection
SC - subcutaneous injection

[Oxymoron]

Morphine
Morphine is naturally occurring substance in the opium poppy, Papaver somniferum. It is a potent narcotic analgesic, and its primary clinical use is in the management of moderately severe and severe pain. After heroin, morphine has the greatest dependence liability of the narcotic analgesics in common use. Morphine is administered by several routes (injected, smoked, sniffed, or swallowed); but when injected particularly intravenously, morphine can produce intense euphoria and a general state of well-being and relaxation. Regular use can result in the rapid development of tolerance to these effects. Profound physical and psychological dependence can also rapidly develop, and withdrawal sickness upon abrupt cessation of heroin use; many of the symptoms resemble those produced by a case of moderately severe flu.
Morphine is infrequently encountered in the North American street drug culture. However, mainly because of its availability in hospitals, there have been several documented cases of morphine dependence among health professionals.
Drug Source
Morphine is isolated from crude opium, which is a resinous prep of the opium poppy, Papaver somniferum.
Trade Name
Roxinal, MS Contin, Morphine Sulphate
Street Names
"M", morph, Miss Emma
Drug Combinations
Use of morphine plus cocaine, as well as of morphine plus methamphetamine, has been reported. However, such combinations are not frequently encountered.
Medical Uses
* symptomatic relief of moderately severe to severe pain;
* relief of certain types of difficult or labored breathing;
* suppression of severe cough (rarely);
* suppression of severe diarrhea (e.g., that produced by cholera).

if i have a prescription for hydrocodoiene but i take an oxycodone what will it show up as on a 12 panel test will the oxy show up as an opiate or something elses

[pill]

hydrocodone & oxycodone oxycontin are semi synthetic opioids dont quote me but i beleive that they have their own pannel's on a drug test
high quantitys of oxycontin or oxycodone i read somewhere can sometimes show as opiates/heroin but rarely and methadone/dolophine is not in any way chemically related to opiats or opioids it has to be specificly tested for not that you should consider switchin to it i personally know its the nastyst stuff to kick it takes much longer than any other pain drug to be free of and its way more dangerous best way to know what is gonna happen in a ua is to take one on your own to see the truth hope that helped chek out erowid.com
