Also, why do you ask about heroin? are you an addict? do you have to take a drug test? I'm just curious why you are asking. Let us know.

First of all I think fighting over this is really dumb don't you?

Is apple a fruit?

Yes Percs are opiates and if you had a computer and typed in Percocet in your search engine your fight could of been avoided.........

yes it will show as an opiate,also if requested the type of percocet,dilaudid ,oxycontin etc.At the meth clinic the protocal called for a urin test with the dip stick done in my presence.that test tested for the general category opiates,benzos,cocaine methadone. When people objected a more precise test that was sent to the lab. the lab test would pinpoint exactly the drug of choice

When I was on Oxycontin and Norco the pain management dr would some times give a urine like every 90 days as I think they are required by law. This ensures there is no drug diversion, When the test came back see would show me the results, Oxycontin does show as oxycodone and the Norco shows as hydrocodone, One time I hadn't taken my norco 6 days before I saw her and she asked why I wasn't taking my Norco. it tests for THC, AMPHETAMINES, BENZOS, HEROIN, COCAINE, METHAMPHETAMINE and many other drugs, These were not cheap urine test. They cost over $300.
as they use the (GAS) method, Do not test positive for any illegal drugs or a drug that they cannot confirm with the pharmacy or dr or you will get the boot and trust me a little bit of weed is all is takes to screw yourself bad, I have overheard patients pleading for a second chance, When it comes to the risk of losing their DEA waiver, They will protect themselves----------NOAH

I believe your right, your body doesn't metabolize percocet into morphine.

It actually doesn't in a "standard" drug screen. It does pick up hydro, though. It was explained to me that the drug test only picks up the ones that transform into morphine. Oxy doesn't morph into morphine. They usually have to order a special test to pick up Oxy.
