Does Poppy Seed Intake Cause False Positive Drug Test Results?

Posted on Sat, 2 May 2015

Question: Hello.. i have been taking drug tests and with no problems for the last seven months, but my last and final test i they said i had just under 200 nanograms of codeine/morphine level. I have been living a clean lifestyle and i have not taking any no-perscribed medications. However, I did eat a bagel loaded with XXXXXXX seeds about 2 to 3 hours before my unire analysis. After doing some research, it appears that the XXXXXXX seed can create a possible false positive during a drug test. Please help

Brief Answer: XXXXXXX seed it is..

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Welcome to Health Care Magic.

I am Dr.Muhammad Ahmad, I have read your question in detail, I understand your concern and will try to help you in the best possible way.

XXXXXXX seed is the dervied from the plant used to produce opium, plus cough syrups and pain killers have codine derivatives..

if you havent been taking cough syrups or pain killer then XXXXXXX seed looks like the prime suspect,

Indeed you read it right, XXXXXXX seed in large quantity can cause a positive drug twst specially if eaten recently prior to the test.

I hope this answered your question if you have more I am happy to answer.

Regards.

Thank you so it is your opinion that a heavily XXXXXXX seeded bagel eaten 2 to 3 hours before a drug test could produce a positive result for codeine in the region between 100 to 200 nano grams? Thank you
