When submitting a specimen for a drug testing, you are required to disclose all the medication that you are currently taking or had taken in the past week or month. The reason why it is important to provide all the prescription names is that sometimes drugs interfere with each other and a test results comes up “false-positive” for something you had not taken. The detailed list of prescription or over-the-counter drugs that may influence the drug test results follows below.

Last time we spoke about Moxifloxacin.

Today we will talk about Amesec.

General drug information:

Amesec is sold under various brand names and is mainly used to treat symptoms of a variety of lung problems, such as asthma, emphysema, bronchitis, pneumonia. It is normally not available over-the-counter since it contains a bronchodilator.

This medication should not be taken by people with allergic reactions to guaifenesin (contained in Robitussin) any type of xanthine bronchodilators – theophylline, dyphylline, pentoxifylline, and others.

Possible side effects:

Among common side effects when taking Amesec is light to moderate nausea, vomiting, constant headache, fast or uneven heartbeat, trouble sleeping, restlessness, shakiness; there are slight chances for such occurrences as diarrhea, increase in frequency and amounts of urination, seizures; if any of these or any other serious side effect occur while you are taking Amesec, speak with your doctor immediately to discuss the possibility of switching to a different product.

The use of Amesec (and its brand names) may cause a false-positive drug test result for amphetamine and opiate use (heroin). Generally, false-positive test results are not very common, but why risk something as important as a successful drug test outcome? If you are prescribed such medicament as Amesec and coincidently have an upcoming testing scheduled – shield your privacy with the help of detox products. A great variety of detox drinks and detox pills will make each urine sample completely clean and eliminate every chance of wrong test reading.
