Did My Generic Adderall Cause Me To Test False Positive For Methamphetamine? (Page 4) (Top voted first)

I take d-amphetamine salt combos 20mg twice daily, and I recently had a hair drug test for pre-employment purposes. I tested positive for methamphetamine at a level of 570ng/mg, but I have never touched meth! They already did the GC/MS, and are now doing an isomer test, but they say that my adderall could NOT have cause a positive meth result! I've seen in other responses that this is possible, however I can't find any documentation to prove this. I've read over the Adderall and methamphetamine information profiles on this site, but still don't have the proof I need. Does anyone know where I can find this documentation? Please help!

You're always going to test positive on adderall but if you have a prescription for it they're not allowed to count it against you for employment I know this because it happened to me and I got the job anyway

I recently began using Adderall XR 20mg and got a job offer. I didn't think about the Adderall use until later so I immediately panicked. LabCorp did the screening and no longer accepts scrips on site because of HIPAA. So she told me a physician (MRO) would call if I tested positive. Well 10 days later, I heard nothing. I thought for sure I had a positive test result given to my employer. So I am posting so that someone may be helped by this info that wasn't posted online while I was looking.

1.) Call the physician listed on your paperwork if you are not contacted in 3 business days. They will notify you that you had a positive amphetamine test and need to speak to a MRO.

2.) Provide the name of pharmacy and they can call and verify. They will also accept a pic of prescription bottle.
Once it is received they will post a negative to your employer.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DISCLOSE TO YOUR POTENTIAL EMPLOYER. You are only up s*** creek if you don't have a valid script.
No one can help you except the physician/MRO listed on your screening paperwork. Hang onto it because you may need your sample number when calling. So now I am on to my dream job.

If u take Zantac, then that's more likely the case. Ranitidine causes false positive

The D isomer found in meth will get you in the end. I have a script to adderall and psudoehedrine and still failed the gc/ms test. No way to out smart it. Stop lying to yourself and just quit before more pain is caused.

My God. After reading the above post, I am literally speechless. I don't know whether to be disgusted or amused. Actually, I'm pretty amused.

Some feedback: Amphetamine and methamphetamine are damn near the exact same thing. In rat studies, adderall has a "liking" rating and abuse potential effect either the same as or greater than cocaine. And, by the way, this is in doses similar to those described by quite a few of this forum posters. Also, check out the National Institute of Healths report on the long term effects of amphetamine us in doses equivalent to those prescribed to the average adhd children. Neurological, physical, and psychological effects consistent with Cocaine use. Poster number 9, Courtney I believe, said something kind of like this, "I am outraged by my false positive for methamphetamine, it could of caused alot of problems for my children and husband with a secret clearance." ummm, Im pretty sure discussing your husband's credentials on the internet will be more disturbing to his employer than your false positive on a drug tests.

When I read these above posts, I see some signs of normalcy, but alot of signs of borderline-delusional, grandiose bs shot at the screen as if from an uninhibited, over-focused, off-range machine gun. This is a negative side effect of excessive stimulant use.

PS-A particular, legitimate brand of adderall is not associated with an increased frequency of false positives on a drug test compared with another legitimate brand. I know what some of ya'll are thinking. "Your wrong, Rockerfeller owns this particular brand of adderall, and they put methamphetamine in it to make it more addictive so they can take the profit and use it to build the satellites for the illuminate peoples republic so they can....." No-just...no. Get help.
