You can't really: Urine testing is not terribly accurate in terms of determining whether someone is taking a specific amount of any medication, including hydrocodone. However, if some legal determination has been made, you are going to likely need an attorney to contest it, and that attorney could get a drug abuse testing expert to assist you.
