I think it can cause a positive reaction to methamphetamine (aka crystal meth, ice), and the drug test they may be using might test for that drug along with cocaine. I would ask the company that does the testing exactly what drugs were tested for the one that brought you up as positive. Are you a member of a union? It's time to seek legal guidance. If you can't afford a lawyer, then go to the free legal services in your city or town.

Cocaine and dexatrim had something to do with it.

kind of gross, but i don't think mucus can dissolve cocaine. try water tons of water instead.

Ha, that's a good one.  Do some searches on ogoplex, roplex, and viacil supplements.  There's a combination of saw palmetto and other herbs that actually can work very well...maybe not quite Peter North well but it makes a difference.  Also - testosterone boosting supplements help as well.  Vitrix is one of the high quality/potency tribulus tablets that is used for promoting muscle growth.  It works by tricking your body into creating more testosterone.  I think you can see the correlation here.  I have a few friends in their 50's that are swearing by this combination, as well as adding some L-arginine or nitric oxide supplements.  It worked well enough to get them to give up the viagra, so I'd say it's pretty effective.

Rogaine works ok.\n\nMost people have better results with finasteride (Propecia).  It blocks DHT.  You can buy Proscar, cut the pills in 1/4 and take it instead.  It's cheaper that way.

I would have though they woule be testng for more regular drugs - recreational - HOWEVER ephedrine may give a false positive for other drugs, specifically methamphetamine. It does depend on the test they use.\n\nAs for how long, 2-4 days seems to be atypical guestimate from most of the websites I have seen in the past.  The previous answer MIGHT be correct but it seems to contradict most of the other sites I have seen. I will try and check some more. Here is a list of others which might be of use....\n\nAlcohol                                6-24 hours\nAmphetamines                           2-3 days\nBarbituates                             1 day to 3 weeks\nBenzodiazepines                3-7 days\nCocaine                               2-5 days\nCodeine                               3-5 days\nEuphorics (MDMA, Ecstasy) 1-3 days\nLSD                                         1-4 days\nMarijuana (THC)                 7-30 days\nMethadone                            3-5 days\nMethaqualone                          14 days\nOpiates                               1-4 days\nPhencyclidine (PCP)              2-4 days\nSteroids (anabolic)                 14-30 days\n\n\nThe following medical products (including ephedrine) can lead to "false positives" and might be wroth bearing in mind as an emergency excuse....\n\n    * Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin)\n    * Midol\n    * Nuprin\n    * Sudafed           The one you are interested in - false pos for ephidirine/meth\n    * Vicks Nasal Spray\n    * Neosynephren\n    * Ephedra and Ephedrine-based products (often used in diet products)\n    * Detromethorphan\n    * Vicks 44

To be a little more specific, the cocaine molecule contains:\n\na phenyl group\n\ntwo carboalkoxy groups (ester class), but also contain two carbonyl groups which may act independent of the ester\n\nan amine\n\nBTW, the N is part of a bicyclic heptane ring

Yes, most likely this drug will show up on an abused drug screening, particularly if it is taken daily.  However if you have a prescription for this medication and disclose this before the test a positive result will not be held against you.

Any Cocaine Metabolite stays in your body system for a minimum of 1.25- 4 hours and a maximum of 2-3 days.This is called the detection time.You can metabolize drugs at a different rate and, thus, have slightly different maximum and minimum detection times, as to how long the drug will stay in the body.

no this wont work \n\ndrug tests are designed to pick up masking agents such as this as well as the drug itself \n\nif they detect a masking  agent you still fail \n\nthe only way you can pass is to be drug clean

If you have a false positive test for cocaine, you might have bigger problems. I looked on a web site, and most of the false positives are caused by serious health problems:\n\nCocaine - Substances or Conditions which can cause false positives\nKidney infection (kidney disease)\nLiver infection (liver disease)\nDiabetes\nAmoxicillin, tonic water\n\nThere are a LOT of web sites out there on this subject. DO web searches for "cocaine false positive" (without the quotation marks) and similar searches for more.

Actually no, hair testing is very reliable,  trace elements and the amount of these elements will prove very well even about how long it has been.\n\nA good lab will know the difference. And it also matters which drugs they are testing for, which method is best to use.

It already is. The generic name is Finasteride.

If you have done coke only one time.... It can be gone as soon as the next day. \n\nother drugs can/will stay in your system longer.\n\nWhen they are testing w/ hair, I under stand it to be much longer that they can find stuff in your system.

He tested positive for ephedra. It is a stimulant that can supply more oxygen to muscle tissue.\n\nHe did not test positive for cocaine.

Assuming you have normal liver and kidney function, and you're not taking any drugs that significantly alter drug metabolism, the Lortabs have a duration of action of 4-6 hours, but can be detected on a drug test for 3-6 days.  Xanax has a duration of about 8 hours, and can be detected for a week or two, longer if you're a chronic user.  Adderall has a duration of action of 4-8 hours, and clears the system and is undetecable in 2-4 days.
