Brief Answer:
Percocet can interfere with your test results.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome here.

Your urinalysis came positive for suboxone.

Suboxone drug contains buprenorphine (an opioid agonist) and naloxone (an opioid antagonist).

From the drugs which you have listed, I think percocet would have influenced your test results as its one of the component is oxycodone which is also opioid analogue.

Hope this helps.
