Will they test me for drug use in a UTI urine test?
they do not routinely screen for drugs in a patient with UTI. you may ask the doctor about it, but you can consent to a urine test for an infection and you can refuse a urinary drug test. but no doctor on earth will waste their time with a drug test. and according to guidelines, the doctor can prescribe antibiotics without a drug test is there is sufficient evidence for UTI. the urine test is merely for confirmation if needed and to rule out drug resistance if suspected.
Will a urinary tract infection effect a urine drug test?
Oh Vanessa! If you only come here to criticize people, you need to find something better to do with your time. People are going to do what they want to and preaching to them isn't going to change them one bit. People change for THEMSELVES, not for people like you. Sorry Smoker, now to answer your question. Are you still taking your antibiotics? You shouldn't just quit taking them even though you feel better. You must take the prescribed amount to truly clear the infection. Detox drinks, for the most part, are either going to work or they're not going to work. Your UTI will not affect the test one bit. Be sure to tell your employer you were recently on antibiotics. Antibiotics can cause false positives on opiate screens even though they contain no opiates. Also be careful, because many places test for oxidizing adulterants, so make sure your "detox" drink is not just an oxidizer trying to cover up the THC. I am not going to preach, you smoked ONCE in the past month...as long as it isn't affecting your life, why should anyone tell you what to do? One of my best friends is 40, and has a joint once in awhile. Even though I don't smoke, I could care less! She is a great person, smart as a whip, and a hard worker. And as far as Vanessa's "health facts" about smoking marijuana...she chose ONE reputed study. I could list 20 reputed sites that list the medical BENEFITS! I have many patients that use medical marijuana. It helps them; it really does. Sorry for blabbing on and on....hope the info I provided helps. If you have any further questions, feel free to email me.

Because the vagina and the urethra lie very close to each other. It makes it difficult to collect a urine sample without contaminating it with menstrual blood.

The test strips aren't designed to test for or react to any other chemicals. A blood pregnancy test is similar; all it does is measure the amount of HCG in your blood. It doesn't test for anything else, including drug use.However, the particular clinic you visit might have a policy of running additional, routine tests on your blood or urine.
