Will TRAMADOL show up as an opiate in a urine or blood test?!


Question: I think I am scheduled for a drug test - urine and possibly blood at my pain clinic on Apr. 11. Due to severe pain (included an ER visit b/c I couldn't move for days), I have ran out of my Oxycodone. I do not want them to test me and not find it in my system and think I am selling it nor do I want to tell them I had to take several more pills per day just to get out of the bed and function. I like my doctors at the pain clinic but I just could not help having to take a few extra pills. My husband has Tramadol for his shoulder injury and I am taking that. Will it show up as an opiate? Or will it simply show up as TRAMADOL? Please don't be disrespectful, I am respect all of you, please respect me and answer with TACT.

Thank you!

Ultram is an synthetic opioid analgesic. Although tramadol is not classified as a narcotic, it may become habit-forming, causing mental or physical dependence.
I do believe it will cause a positive test result on a test.

AND it will take a lONG TIME TO GET THIS DRUG OUT OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! Not the three days with regular opiates. It is two drugs in one and has a 9 hour half life. Ultram according to one of the formost subject on Tramadol on the Internet claims it can take 21 days to get out of you. This is a lousy drug. Type in Ultram Sucks on Google.


BUT READ THIS!!!!!!!!!!!! I still don't beleive it. It does work on a MI or M2 receptor as codiene does. But...........Does Tramadol test positive for Opiates / Morphine on a urine drug test?



It is the general consensus of opinion in the drug testing community that Tramadol (otherwise known as Tramadol Hcl, Tramadol Hydrochloride, Ultram and Ultracet) does not cause a false positive test result for Opiates / Morphine on an on-site urine drug test.

Tramadol is an opioid - which is a synthetic product that has psychoactive effects through its actions on Opiate receptors in the brain. However, the chemical structure of Tramadol is significantly different from the structure of free Morphine which is what Opiate drug tests are designed to screen for. Consequently, it is highly unlikely that Tramadol can cross-react with Opiate drug screening immunoassays - whether laboratory based or an on-site test.

We have also been unable to find any references from peer reviewed journals or other authority websites claiming any instances of Tramadol causing a false positive. Normally, if a medication causes this problem there are numerous references to it.

Don't take the chance! I was told by a bunch of people it does. Darvocet is a synthetic opiate and that shows up. Being synthetic has nothing to do with it.

Tramadol is an artificial opiate and given as a pain killer for those who are suffering from opiate withdrawl.

It will not show up as a positive on a drug test, so don't worry.

yes,it will
