How Will Valerian Root , Ambien And Xanax Show Up On Urine Screen?

Valerian root is a form of herbal medicine that can be used to either treat anxiety or even as a mild sedative.  Taking the substance does not have many adverse affects but there is a chance that it will show up during a urine screen.  In rare circumstances valerian root has been known to show as positive in tests for benzodiazepines. 

Benzodiazepines are psychoactive drugs that are used to treat mainly psychological illness and are classed as minor tranquilisers, a common benzodiazepine is diazepam.  It is therefore possible that valerian root can cause a false positive in urine tests and show as another drug.  Similarly, Xanax is a benzodiazepine drug and will also show up on a urine test as such.  Xanax is used mainly to treat anxiety and panic disorders. 

Ambien (or zolpidem) is a prescription drug used as a short term measure to treat insomnia.  Ambien has similar effects on the brain as benzodiazepines with similar symptoms.  It is also possible that Ambien will shop up on a urine screen in the same way as Xanax and valerian root.  Both Xanax and Ambien are prescription drugs and, although not illegal, may lead to some questions if your urine screen does show positive for benzodiazepines without a valid prescription. 

Valerian root is not necessarily prescribed and only appears on urine screens in rare circumstances.  Benzodiazepines are not illegal to possess but are illegal to sell, unless purchased through valid medical establishments.  As they are mild tranquilisers they have been known to be taken recreationally, hence potential questioning should your urine screen show as positive in a test.  As with any drug, benzodiazepines do have side effects and recreational use is not advised and a doctor should be consulted before taking these drugs.

The compound Diazepam {Valium) was and is synthesized from the Valerian root...The chemical signature will show up { as Valium} in a drug screen {most}...Believe it or not... Believe it!. Kaless134

Excuse me, I just have to interject in regard to what Grace007 stated as fact. I am on Methadone treatment in Baltimore, take 130mg/day as well as 3mg Klonopin, 1mg Ativan and 2mg Xanax (plus Valerian Root). I go to the clinic 1 time per month, dose there, and get 27 take-homes because I have legit scripts for benzos and haven't relapsed into anything else in 3 solid years.
Thus, a blanket statement like "Methadone and Benzos will kill you" is just not true. Yes, if you have no tolerance to opiates (or little tolerance, same goes for benzos,) then the combo may very well kill you, but I've taken Meth and 3 different benzos daily for 3 years, recently finished my Bachelors Degree, work full-time managing 12 people, am awake, alert and "with it" most all of the time...and I'm NOT DEAD!!!
Blanket statements spread mis-information and scare people. Just because something CAN kill you, doesn't mean that it WILL kill you. I'm living proof of a life moving in an extremely positive direction on the supposedly "KILLER COMBONATION." Even my clinic doctor says that what you warn us all about is mis-information that only applies to some...NOT ALL.

I take my meds for insomnia,high blood pressure and mild anxiety. I don't think that 4 meds means you have a lot of diseases. I know people who are ceos who take 13 pills twice a day. I have no major medical conditions. My blood pressure is not excessively high just 150 /90. Stress test was great. Everyone tells you to use herbal meds instead of real ones and go green . I think they should  check out every possible cause and take a history of your meds and prescriptions before they rush to say you take something you don't take.  The test companies I think have a quota for + results. Something is wrong because I don't take what they said I was + for .

Depending on how many milligrams a day of xanax, thats the one you have to worry about it stays in system from 3 to 7 days. The ambien is a half - life drug on 10 m/g from 8 to 14 hours. What screw you was the xanax that is a benzo-diazepene and valium as well. That's why they call it valium because for them a benzo is a benzo-diazepene.

I completely understand! I am currently on a Methadone program in Baltimore for Heroin problems in the past (about 2 years ago) They test me once a month and so far everything has been great. My last urine test came back positive for Benzodiezapam. And I only take Seroquil, Benadryl (for allergies, and Valerian Root. They took 6 of my take homes that I earned away. Now I have to drag my 2 yr old son up there EVERY SINGEL DAY!!!! Because of some drug test came back inacurate!!!!

Valium is derived from the Valerian root. Therefore it would show positive on a drug test for Valium.

Valerian root does not show up on a urine drug test. I know this for a fact, this is what I do.
Valium and xanax are basically the same...a benzo

and valium is not from valerian root

Valerian Root is what Valium is derived from!!! I think thats your prob!! Or the xanax val and xan are both benzodiazapines

The medicines which you are using indicate that you are having many diseases. I am doubtful about their use together. Anyhow, here is answer of your question

• The norvasc is calcium channel clocker for high blood pressure and hydrochlorothiazide is for edema again a cardiovascular product. These 2 drugs can be the drug abuse.
• Ambian is non benzodiazepene used for insomnia, as the Valium is benzodiazepene, it can not be tested for Valium.
• St. John's wart is used for depression and does not cause CNS suppression so can not be positive for Valium.
• The Xanax is an benzodiazepene used to treat anxiety and can be tested for Valium.
• Valerian roots are from natural source that is a plant Valerian and act as CNS suppressant and can be positive in drug test.
  

No. Drug tests react to the active chemicals that you inhale and or ingest in drugs. No other herb or food has been proven to give you a positive result

As a Benzodiazepam Urine. I'm a walking P.D. R. And so incrediably intelligent!The really great thing is
