Hydrocodone vs Oxycodone

[lynnlow23]

I've tried searching google and here, and I can't find any clear answer...Will Hydrocodone and Oxycodone come up the same on a normal probation urine test? I know that they are both opiates, but I also know they don't metabolize the same.

depends what they are testing for.

if morphine (and its metabolites) - no.

you have to have a specific test in order to detect oxy and hydrocodone.

it's most likely that they will detect it under a different panel which is usually called opiates in general, which screens for all metabolites.

it's seriously dependent on what kind of test they do on you.

wait i'm sorry i've kind of gone off track

if they have the ability to test, they will come out as different, as they are both metabolized into different things by the body.

oxycodone -> α and β oxycodol; oxymorphone, then α and β oxymorphol and noroxymorphone; and noroxycodone, then α and β noroxycodol and noroxymorphone.

hydrocodone -> hydromorphone

That is not true.

I only use Oxycodone and my urine sample will always test positive for Morphine.

if you're talking about the UK drug tests i also get the same positive. this is because it uses a horrendously low scale in order to detect opiate use, i believe its 300ng/ml.

Sorry, I just thought you weren't allowed to ask how to pass a drug test. I was just curious if they show up the same...but it can be closed if it's out of the guidelines.

ive been to rehab and oxy definantly requires its own test I successfully faked their tests by saying i didnt take oxy only heroin and then snorted oxy the whole time lolololo...good times

Depending on the opiate, they can cause cross reactions for certain tests.

Any opiate even partially derived from morphine will test positive for a morphine test. Any derived from codeine, codeine. And some tests can even cover BOTH.

That is the 'screening' aspect of the test. After that, they GC/MS the sample to determine specifically which opiate it is.

So yes, they can cause cross positives. But 99/100 times, once the first round of the test gets a flag, they will GC/MS it to determine PRECISELY what drugs, as well as to avoid false positives (which are eliminated entirely by GC/MS).

So they will know exactly what opiates you took, eventually. Especially if you make it a big point of "oh well thats not the one i took, go check!" they WILL GC/MS your sample, and will know youre full of shit.

A 'normal' probation drug test in one state (or even counties within the same state) is not the same as another states. Some have more specific drug tests than others. This is yet another reason why we don't allow drug testing questions here. Drug testing is not the same across the board, so what one person can get away with in one state is not the same that other person can get away with in another, which can lead to someone failing a drug test because they read a reply that said that hydrocodone won't come up on 'normal' drug tests, but then it turns out that it does for the OP. And then that gives us an unhappy OP that comes back here to flip out about failing the drug test, when it's not even HR to begin, which is the other reason for these questions not being allowed here.

Hello, OP, please refrain from making threads about drug testing questions, they are not allowed on BL. Thread closed.
