Morphine Metabolites???

[Faded]

I only take MS Contin for chronic pain and recently when drug tested, I tested positive for morphine and oxycodone. I haven't taken oxy in over three years, just curious if morphine metabolizes into oxycodone or if it was just a false positive? Thanks

No, morphine-3-glucuronide (M3G) and morphine-6-glucuronide (M6G) are the main metabolites of morphine AFAIK.. I'm not aware of anything that metabolises into oxycodone so I guess it must be a false positive? Any chance you had some by mistake/pill sold incorrectly?

Maybe someone else can shed some light on this..

ps threads about passing drugs tests are not allowed, but I think this kind of discussion is as long as it doesn'r stray into dodgy territory.. it's an interesting one anyway!

Sorry you tested positive for oxy dude hope you have an understanding doctor..

Morphine is glucuronidated and/or N-demethylated and should not cause a false positive for oxycodone.

Effie is right - we don't allow questions about drug testing.

In no way was I attempting to learn how to pass a drug test, and I apologize if that was misinterpreted. I was just curious if that was normal. The doctor said nothing about it, so I figured it was normal....thanks for the info...

False positives are certainly possible.

I'm going to close this because even though you're not directly asking a drug testing question, its still pretty close and Bluelight has a strict policy against these sorts of things.
