What Causes Positive Drug Results While On Anti Anxiety Drugs?

I am on hydrocodeine and had to take a urine test. They said

i tested pos. for an anxiety drug (benzodiazapine I think) I do not take anything for anxiety. The only other thing I took was a comparable (dollar store brand) Tylenol PM containing diphenhydramine and acetaminophen. I also took Baclophen during that time I took the urine test. Why would I get a positive result for either of these for anti anxiety drug?
