Will 200 mg Ibuprofen show up in urine test?

I took Advil Ibuprofen 200mg on Tuesday for cramps, I had to take a urine drug test on Thursday. Will it show a false positive in my urine? I did not know about false-positives until after my drug test, and now I am worried sick. We have to pass to reserve our seat for nursing school. I have not received my results back at this time. Anyone ever heard of this or been in this situation? I have never done drugs. Just take these for my menstrual cramps.

If memory serves me correctly, back in the 80's, when Motrin was a prescription drug, I heard that it could show up as a false positive for cannabinoids.

I believe it was still on the list of "things that can produce a false positive for THC" in one ER where I worked, along with Protonix, maybe? But that was in much larger quantities. ?

No honey, chill out please.

My urine/drug test came back negative!
