Can a urine drug screen differentiate between hydrocodone and oxycodone?

I believe that they are. I just had a urine test and i had taken hydrocodone 3 hours prior to the test (prescription of course). Got the results back today and nothing detected. Another friend of mine is on oxycodone prescription and he was also tested. Oxycodone showed up in the test and he had to show his script. The same test for both of us and his was detected. hope this helps

∙ 12y agoThey will not test the same because they are not the same. Hydrocodone is a schedule 3 controlled substance available at present only in combination products, as is with apap (acetaminophen), asa (aspirin) or in liquids for cough control where it may be mixed with chlorpheniramine, an antihistamine, or pseudoephedrine (sudafed), a decongestant etc..
Oxycodone is a schedule 2 controlled substance and may be the sole ingredient in a drug or may be mixed in a tablet or capsule with aspirin (asa) or (apap), acetaminophen.
They are broken down in the body into different metabolites etc. as found in urine tests.

∙ 13y agoBoth of these are opiates, it depends on the test. If its a basic 5 panel UA (urinalysis), then no it cannot tell the difference. However on lets say a 7 or 9 panel (UA) then it can,but needless to say if you have taken either you will test positive for opiates.

∙ 13y agoYes, A drug test can tell the difference between hydrocodone and oxycontin. They also can tell how much of the drug is in your system as well.

On a routine drug screen is there any difference between percocet and hydrocodone on the results?
Yes. There are particular panels on drug screen tests. Hydrocodone (vicoden) tests positive for general "opiates". There is a special panel for oxycodone.
Does Ultram and Hydrocodone show the same in a drug screen or Oxycodone?
Not sure, i think so.
How does hydrocodone and oxycodone show up in a urine screen?
they both show up as opium
Does vicoden and oxycodone hcl show up as the same thing in a drug screen?
YES: The medication you are referring to is Hydrocodone.
Can a employment drug screen tell the difference between percoset and vicodin?
yes on a urine analysis oxycodone is a separate test they have to check mark on the paper. the hydrocodone will just be seen as vicodon
Can a urinalysis drug test differentiate between Dilaudid and loratabs?
Yes it can. Loritab's active narcotic ingredient is Hydrocodone and oxycodone is obviously oxycodone. It really depends on the complexity of the test. If it's a five panel urinalysis both will just show up as "opiate" positive. If it is a gas spectrum chromatography (like a pre-employment drug screen), it can tell the difference between hydrocodone, oxycodone, fentanyl, heroin, morphine, hydromorphone, etc. hope this helps ya! -Scott G Hallendale, FL
Will hydrocodone show up on a drug screen if your doctor is giving oxycodone?
yes they can see the difference if it's actually sent to a profssional lab. A dipstick test won't catch it. Pharmacist
What medication cause a positive drug screen for opiates and amphetamines?
Codeine, morphine, hydrocodone, oxycodone to name a few of the opiates. Meth would be Ritalin or adderol or dexadrine more than likely.
Will tylenol3 and hydrocodone mixed come up on drug test as oxicodonie?
It depends on the type of drug test being used. On a standard pre-employment type drug screen, Tylenol No3 (codeine), hydrocodone, and oxycodone will likely be detected as a single positive result for narcotics or opioids. A more specialized (and expensive) test could be used to distinguish between the three.
Oxycodone doesnt show up as oxycodone on a urine screen?
oxycodone is just pure heroine.....which is an opiate....
Does oxycodone-hydrocloride show up as opiate in a drug screen?
Yes. Oxycodone is an opiate class drug. It will show up on a drug screen as an opiate.
Does lortab show up as a opiate in urine drug screen?
It might, in a screen. More accurate tests can readily distinguish between hydrocodone and other opiates, though.
