False-positives – what you need to know: Clinoril
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 Anaprox.
Today we will talk about Clinoril.
Clinoril – available by prescription or over-the-counter; ingested orally. Has been proven to cause false-positive for THC on urine drug test.
General drug information:
Clinoril is used to treat the symptoms of arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, tendinitis, bursitis, or gout. The drug works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the human body. The maximum daily dosage for Clinoril is 400 milligrams. Do not take larger or smaller amounts than recommended by your doctor, and do not use longer than prescribed. Also consult your doctor if you are taking any other medications while taking Clinoril, since they may interfere with one another.
Possible side effects:
Clinoril may cause serious side-effects, including but not limited to: chest pain, weakness, shortness of breath, slurred speech, problems with vision or balance; nausea, stomach pain, low fever, loss of appetite, dark urine, etc. This drug can also cause life-threatening conditions including stroke and heart-attack, stomach bleeding and/or perforation of a stomach lining, especially when taken for an extended period of time.
Apart from above mentioned side effect, Clinoril may also interfere with the urine drug test results. In order to avoid any error during a drug test, you may want to consider taking a Fast THC detox kit to make sure that your urine is free of any possible contaminants. As another alternative – synthetic urine will provide a clean, toxin-free sample for the upcoming drug test (if you do not have an official prescription for this drug.) Do not risk it – know your options and prepare yourself in advance.
