If you take a 5 Panel Drug Screen, it will be Negative for Methadone. Methadone is synthetic and does not cause a positive Opiate result. However, the 10 and 12 panel drug screens do specifically test for Methadone as one of the 10 or 12 types of drugs.
Jane is on a suboxone detox program for Oxycontin addition. She now wants to change to methadone. Could she be doing this to give herself logical explanation for positive drug test for opiates?
She would test positive for opiates on soboxone. Methadone has to be tested for specifically ......................... No SUboxone will NOT show up positive for opiates. It, like methadone, has to be specifically tested for. but if she was on a program I'm sure that they tested for everything. These drug test are not your normal "drug screen" they can tell the difference between hydrocoden, oxy, Suboxone, methadone, Ambian, just about anything. they also can test the level of each drug, "how much is in her system." so it is very likely that she could have failed a screen. I know some people switch to methadone because the suboxone doesn't always take care of the cravings and methadone does a better job because it is a full agonist. "works better"

Why does methadone show positive in urine drug screen when only percocet is taken?
Most likely you have the wrong drug listed as what is showing in the drug screen... I don't believe that methadone would show in a drug screen for percocet. Percocet is made of two active ingredients, Tylenol and oxycodone. oxycodone is derived from morphine, so it is possible that morphine may show in the drug test when percocet is taken.
