Question: Antibiotics containing steroids!?
My boyfriend took ampicillian but has a drug test for a new job coming up soon!. He was wondering if ampicillian 500 mg contained any steroids that would alter the results!. I have told him that it wont but he doesnt believe me!. So can anyone vouch for me please or if I am wrong inform me! Thanks!!! Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ampicillin is an antibiotic prescribed to treat bacterial infections!. No, it does not contain any steroids!. When companies require urine drug testing, they are looking for any illicit drugs ( pot), narcotics ( pain relievers), cocaine, speed, heroin (opiate), PCP!. tranquilizers ( Xanax, Valium, Klonopin, Restoril ( these are known as Benzo's!.)!. If he is taking any prescription medication that are Benzos or pain killers, he should get a note from his Doctor that prescribed the med and bring the note with him when he is scheduled for a urine test!. The routine drug urine testing does NOT test for steroids!.
Be sure that your boyfriend completes the full course of his antibiotics, even if he starts to feel better!. This is one of the reasons why antibiotics become resistant and will no longer be helpful to fight certain infections!.

his drug sounds like its in the penecillian family so I would think it didnt have steroids b/c if it did why would they give my daughter 2 shots of steriods to fight the allergic reactionWww@Answer-Health@Com

ampicillian does not contain steroids!.!.!.if he is so worried about it then he should just inform them that he is taking it when he goes for his test!. there should not be a problem as long as he is under the care of a Dr, it is not a narcotic either, so it won't show upWww@Answer-Health@Com
