Other - How does ketamine show up on drug tests?

[painadvocate]

How does ketamine show up on a tox screen, or does it? Is there a specific test for that? For instance, if an individual had used troches (lozenges) made in a compound Rx for a person to control pain, or in the form of nasal spray, would this show up in a basic tox screen (UA)? thanx in advance for any responses! take care all

Read again. It says that ketamine can produce false positives for PCP. And a ketamine defense isn't a very good one to challenge a false positive for PCP.
