My daughter has been in a rehab facility that does random UA s. She is taking gabapentin (1200 to 1800mg/daily), ibuprofen (600mg/ 3xdaily), tylenol (325mg/3xdaily). When she went through detox (about 3 1/2 wks ago) she was prescribed lorazepam as well as diazepam. Her UA tested positive for oxazepam (139ng/ml). She insists that she has not taken anything but the above listed medications since entering detox. My question is: will any of the above medications show a positive for oxazepam in a UA? Please help! She has been evicted from the rehab facility and cannot come back until this is resolved. Thank you, More than concerned Dad

Thus, diazepam often remains detectable in the urine for a day or two after the other metabolites have been fully eliminated. If patients are
