What Is The Impact Of Augmentin On Marijuana?

Hi, I smoked a good amount of marijuana 5 days ago. I am 5' 6" weighing 113 pounds, and have been drinking lots of liquids. I have been recently prescribed to Augmentin and have been taking it for about 6-8 days. I have a Urine Test tomorrow. The prescription says "May alter urine-test results." Will the Augmentin help me pass, or will i fail for marijuana consumption?

It isn't likely to change them. First, the false positives are able to usually be ruled out by more precise confirmatory tests. Second, augmentin might cross react with cocaine but it does NOT cross react with marijuana. Ibuprofen is rumored to cross react with marijuana.
