Brief answer....given below Detailed answer... Hello, Thanks for the query. I can understand your problem but the fact is that you would keep getting positive results for THC. There are plenty of medicines and medical conditions which give false positive results. Medicines which are notorious to give false positive results are... Almost all the pain killers except aspirin and Tylenol. Most of the anti nausea and vomiting medicines. Proton pump inhibitors Vitamins like B2 and B12. Medical conditions resulting in false positives are... Diabetes,kidney conditions and liver conditions. I think you might have got the answer and I would like you to discuss about it with your doctor. You are most welcome to revert to me if you have any additional query. Best of luck Thanks
