    Yes they can, however not all narcotics are tested and it depends upon what type of test you will be given.

    For instance the standard NIDA-5 only tests for 5 drugs and while opiates are tested it is only certain ones. In this test they are looking for morphine and it's metabolites. Medications such as morphine, Heroin, Codeine, Hydromorphone will show up in this test. However medications such as Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, Darvon, Fentanyl will not show up with this test as they are not broken down into morphine and need more advanced tests for detection

    Yes they do. Also be aware that many over the counter meds like cold medications and lots of supplements can also cause false positive results when they drug test via urine.

    Prescription pain killers do. But tylenol or over the counter drugs don't.

    Yes. It shows up, but if you have a prescription that was written for you, its ok just as long as you aren't abusing the drug. They can also test for specific drugs if it is positive.

    Yes they do, if the company screens for them. That is why the person conducting the test will ask you what medication you have been taken.
