Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to Health Care Magic.

Thanks for writing.

I am Dr.Muhammad Ahmad. I have read your question completely, i understand your concern and will try to help you in the best way possible.

Kombucha tea detox is a proclaimed blend of natural ingredients the producers do claim that it detoxes the body but it is not an FDA approved function or product for this purpose...

There is no scientific evidence that the above mentioned product does actually detoxes..but according to users testimonies it does detox to some extent.

Such things can be used but their effect xan not be predicted.



I hope this answered your question, a

I take my meds EVERY DAY and yet they don't show up in my urine tests.
Where else are they going.
I have got to got this answered, because with out them I'm going to go through withdrawal symptoms without the clonazepam, which will be seizures.
and just standing for 5-10min causes so much pain I have trouble standing in line for groceries.
There may not be any FDA proof but something is going on.
HELP! I have only a couple of days of meds left.
I am really scared about the end.
Can another answer my question.
I NEED HELP.

Blood test can be done

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing back,
I would suggest you to stop using this tea and you can get blood test instead of urine test to get proff for drug concentration ij your blood.discuss this with your doctor.

According to researches not 100% drugs are found in the urine there may be false negative test so discuss with your doctor about getting a blood test for this
