Does anyone know if there are ANY meds that would show up as PCP in a urine drug screen? I know that Aciphex and Protonix can show positive for Marijuana, but I have had two patients show up Positive for PCP who are very unlikely to be users.
One is a 16 year old severely autistic boy and one is a fifty-something mental health counselor.
Any ideas? Thank you!
