Depending on the type of test that is being given the answer is generally yes. Prescription opiates are ultimately all some form of morphine derivative meaning that the drug will contain alkaloids from the poppy plant and will metabolize in the body the same way. Most standard five panel "dip stick" drug tests look for the presence of morphine in the urine and since all opiates are derived from the drug morphine the test would pick up on it.

The only exception to this would be the opioid class of drugs such as ultram / tramadol, suboxone, oxycodone and other "synthetics". This is because opioid drugs are "synthetically" created to attach themselves to the same receptors in the brain and to some degree or another have a similar chemical structure but because they are "man made" and not derived directly from the poppy plant they would not break down metabolically in the body the same way and thus would not be detected as an opiate on a standard five panel "dip stick" test.

Opioids are however easily detectable in the urine if the test that is being administered is designed to look for them specifically but they would not show up as an opiate, they would show up as an opioid.

Understanding the difference between opoids and opiates and how they metabolize and break down in the body as well as the type of drug test that is being administered is the key factor when considering this matter.....

How does hydrocodone show up on a drug test?

Positive for OPIATES (which can include heroin)


Does Oxycontin and hydrocodone come up the same on a basic urine drug test?

Yes they do, both will show up as opiates in your system. The person administering the test won't know if your on Oxycontin, Hydrocodone or even Heroin. It will just give a positive result for opiates like any opiate drug will. You cannot tell which opiate from a urine test.


What will make you test positive for oxycodone?

I have taken 30mg of oxycodone once two or three days before my drug screen. Will the test be positive, as my boyfriend has a prescription. I have prescriptions for xanax and ritalin, but not for the oxycodone.


Will oxycodone come up as opiate on a drug screen panel?

Oxycodone is in the classification as a Opioid but does not come up as a Opiate on a drug test when it comes to a urine test. That is why there is a separate test panel for Opiates and Oxycodone. A Opiate test is morphine based testing for products containing morphine. Oxycodone has a similar structure to Morphine but is not Morphine thus the need for Oxycodone to have its own test panel. Morphine products include Codeine, Heroin, Dilaudid and Hydrocodone, Loratab, Vicodin and Lorcet. Oxycodone products are percocet, percodan, oxycontin , roxicodone and obviously oxycodone. The confusion comes in because oxycodone is a synthetic opiate, however, when it comes to opiates on a drug test it is morphine based.


Does Oxycontin come up as opiates in a dip test?

Yes it does. It is opiate based, like Vicodin, percocet, morphine, heroin, etc.


You failed for opiates for your iop class and you only take suboxone why did it come up as an opiate?

Suboxone is an "opioid." If someone sets his machine up to detect suboxone, it's going to list it as an opiate.


Do chia seed show up in a urine test?

Yes come up as an opiate


Does sniffing suboxone come up in a drug test just as suboxone or could it come up as an opiate?

Sniffing Suboxone still shows in your urine/blood the same way it shows up through orally taking it. Unless the people are testing for buebrenorphin, it will not show up on test for opiates.


Would Dilaudid and roxicodone come up as the same thing in a urine sample?

Opiates --- yes


What does heroine show up as in a drug screen?

Herione is the most powerful opiate there is. An opiate is found is painkillers. So if you take a painkiller 2-3 days before a drug test, it will come back positive for opiates just like heroine.


Does methadone have opiate in them?

I suppose how one could come to this conclusion based on common usage (substitution for heroin) This is definitely not the case. Methadone increases your opiate tolerance possibly more than other common opiates, codeine, oxycodone, etc. This is because methadone is an opiate itself and it shows a very high binding affinity to your opiate receptors, meaning that the methadone attaches more strongly to your "brain" and will, in turn, raise the production of QFQ considerably.So no, Methadone will definitely NOT lower your tolerance to opiate meds or any other opiate for that matter since it is an opiate in itself.


Can THC from poppy seeds show up in a urine screening?

NO, it cannot. THC comes from the cannabis plant not any opiate plant, ie poppy seeds. You would test positive for opiates after ingesting poppy seeds, not THC.
