Can Minocycline Antibiotic Show Up On The Drug Test?

Hi, I am currently 24 days out until I go to Marine Corps Bootcamp. When you get there, you are drug tested. For the past 4 months I have been taking Minocycline for my acne. Is there a chance this antibiotic can cause a false positive on the drug test? The tests they use take weeks to come back because they are sent to a lab, it isn t your classic pharmacy test. Thanks

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, drug test being done for the specific drugs like narcotic only and end result would be for that drugs only if you have taken any drugs beside the narcotic then it is nothing to worry because it may not give any result not even false one, hope this information helps, take care and have nice day.
