Q: Can an acid reflux medication make you test positive on drug tests?
Hello Student,
Drug tests are usually tox screens that look for specific drugs, for instance illegal drugs or narcotics. If your drug screen shows that you are taking drugs for acid reflux this is neither illegal or immoral. You should be ok.
If you are taking something that you are concerned about the best person to speak with is a pharmacist. If you have a specific drug in mind, I can find more information for you if you let us know what that medicine is.
Thanks and take care!
