Actually, the answer below is incorrect. The synthetic nature of the medicine has nothing to do with this.

And Methadone, because of its popularity as a recreational drug these days, is routinely included in drug screens today. And a drug screen doesn't know the reason why a pharmaceutical is being taken, whether for pain or for pleasure. So it IS likely to show up in any screen, but not to worry if it is being taken for a legitimate reason. Before being reported, you would be asked about its legitimacy, and if you could show a medical source for the usage, it would not be reported as a result of the drug screen. That's how it works.

It doesn't show up as an opiate if you take a drug test. It will only show up if they are specifically testing for it.

No, It will only show up as methadone because it is synthetic and requires its own specific test to detect it.

Could taking extascy cause you to test poitive for methadone?

I do not think it is possible to test positive for methadone after taking ecstasy. Methadone is a synthetic opiate and ecstasy is a stimulant and hallucinogen. Even when testing for regular opiates methadone will not show up since its synthetic, methadone will show up on a urine as methadone only if they are testing specifically for methadone. There is no way ecstasy will show up as methadone on a urine test, ecstasy does not contain methadone.
