I took a urine test this past Friday 4/3/20 and it’s now Sunday 4/5/20 and when I look on the spectrum app for updates it doesn’t even acknowledge that the lab has it.I took a Sudafed on Thursday for my allergies and was wondering if I will get a false positive and could this be the reason it’s not showing up on the spectrum site yet??? I’m clean but I’m nervous .Angone have any insight on this??

Sudafed is often mistaken on pee tests for numerous hard-core drugs. This is because, like most cold remedies, Sudafed's main ingredient is pseudoephedrine, which is a type of synthetic amphetamine. Avoid Sudafed at least 48 hours before a drug test.

Hi there, I just googled your question and this is what the top result says. I know it's not very encouraging but I wanted to say that if you do get a false positive you can dispute that and say you were not aware of the effects and request a re-test. Hope this helps and I wish you good luck!
