A member asked:

Does oxycontin and hydrocodone show up in a urine drug screen as the same as an opiate? please, need some answers?

Urine drug: The drug screen just comes back positive for opiates. It doesn't differentiate between different opiates.

Possibly: General drug screens often will not detect oxycodone, Buprenorphine and methadone. Extended urine drugs screen can detect these respective substances.
