What if the lab test confirms a positive result?
The lab uses very accurate and reliable equipment to run the tests. If the lab reports a positive result, it means the drug was present in the urine sample. But do not assume the urine sample came from a drug abuser. People can test positive THC (or marijuana) because they have been repeatedly around heavy marijuana smoke even they did not smoke marijuana themselves. Consider all amphetamine results carefully, even those from the lab. Some over-the-counter medications contain amphetamines that cannot be distinguished from illegally abused amphetamines. If you received a positive result and you do not believe the test, consult your doctor. They have your medical history and they can provide you with detailed information. If a positive result was confirmed, consult you doctor to identify counselors who will help you. You can also contact one of the resources listed below for help. 12.
