Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.I'm sorry to hear that you are going through a difficult situation. Urine drug screens are usually very specific for the drug being screened for. So, other prescription medication like anti-depressants, tranquilizers or sedatives do not cause a false positive in the drug test. So, it won't be an acceptable argument that the prescription medication have resulted in a false positive drug test. Wish you all the best.Regards,Dr. Jonas SundarakumarConsultant Psychiatrist
