testing positive for oxycodone

[Anne]

i just took a drug test at my pain clinic and tested positive for oxy and opi. i have a script for hydrocodone and have never taken oxy anything...i know they are both opiates but why would i have tested positive for oxy? my dr didnt say anything about the test, i just looked at it when i got home...i understand that hydro and oxy are both opiates and why i tested positive for opi (because im taking hydro) but i just dont get why i tested positive for oxy...i didnt even know what it was until i looked it up. my doctor gave me my script, so that makes me think he wasnt concerned, but it bothers me because i dont want them to think i am taking both oxy and hydro. thanks

nowadays they do toxology and show everything you take for 2-4 weeks.

Hi,
Well Oxycodone is an opioid analgesic medication synthesized from opium-derived thebaine. It was developed in 1916 in Germany, as one of several new semi-synthetic opioids with several benefits over the older traditional opiates and opioids; morphine, diacetylmorphine (heroin) and codeine.
