Legal Question in Criminal Law in Iowa

Drug testing accuracy

Is it possible that a urine test comes back

positive for amphetamines and meth after a person hasnt

done anything for 14 days prior to submitting to a urinalysis?The info I have found says that it should be out of a persons system in 72 hrs,I know that this ''?'' is more of a chemist question,but it resulted in the violation of a pre-trial release and now the person is in jail awaiting the court date.
