Addiction Medicine Specialist 's  Response
The rate of addicts lying is higher than the 2% false positive rate, and no, other herbs are very UNlikely to cause a positive test but it mis-fires due to sticky urine 2% in the most common urine screen which is a paper to which only THC is supposed to stick, but sometimes the urine sticks and lights it up when there isn't marijuana (redoing the test a few hours later will likely be negative if negative and positive if positive).
