Retest: One of the metabolites of codeine is morphine - but not heroin. Be aware though, if it was a low yield test (ie, like the kind you buy at the grocery store) - these usually give you a positive result for any opiate. Anything more specialized (ie, laboratory study ordered by a doctor) - would use mass spectrometry and differentiate every substance independently. Hope that helps!
