Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.

Oxymorphone will never show up in a UA (urinalysis). It will show up in a Utox (urine toxicology screen). You need to take a Utox rather than a UA to prove you are taking it. I'm not sure why your doctor would ever want evidence of oxymorphone in your urine -- why is your doctor asking for this?
