All opiates are opioids, nut not all opioids are opiates.
This distinction is often ignored and the terms are frequently used interchangeably.

Methadone is an OPIATE, so it will show up as an opiate. It all depends on what kind of drug screen is being used. I have heard of some regular drug screens (ones that test for everything) that didnt even pick up methadone, but it will show up if your are taking an opiate drug test. Methadone is kind of wierd because it is sythetic and completely man made so I guess it may dupe a few older or cheaper drug test, but alot of the newer tests will pick it up.

You took 1 10mg methadone last night at 8pm and have a urine drug test at noon today you drank 2 gallons of water and the test was taken after 12 hours will the methadone show up in urine drug test?
yes if the test is going to include methadone on it. methadone is a synthetic opiate and the drug test must specifically test for methadone for it to show up. 1 10mg methadone can show up in your urine for 7 to 14 days. I have been on methadone for 6 years. Someone that takes methadone everyday it can show up on a drug test 30 days later. - - - - - You knew about this test beforehand but you did drugs the night before it anyway? Yeah, you need to fail. And don't ever drink two gallons of water in less than 12 hours again. That can kill you. Google "water intoxication."
Can you tell the difference between Oxycontin and methadone in a drug test?
Yes they can tell the difference in Methadone and hydrocodone Methadone has to be tested separately in a test it is not on the 5 panel test. Hydrocodone however is an opiate and will show up as an opiate. Methadone is a synthetic opiate and is in a class all of its own. Methadone tricks the brain into thinking that its still has heroin/opiates in the body it works the same in the brain. So to answer your question they would have to test separate for methadone. It is two totally different drug classes. I personally don't think on a dipstick they can. Methadone is still an opiate. I took it for years with loracet and never saw the dr tell a difference. Sorry to tell ya.
