can ADHD medication show positive for meth on a drug test

Depends on which one you are on.  Adderall is an amphetamine, so is concerta, and ritalin. I dont know how sensitive the tests are, some are really general, some are detailed.  If you use meth, it is a separate result for amphetamines, vs methamphetamines.

Adderall is a mixture of dextro-amphetamine and amphetamine. Crystal meth is methamphetamineYan active ingr. in Desoxyn). Adderall will show up POSITIVE for AMPHETAMINES or A-AMPHETAMINE(aka legal amps). Now, methamphetamine will come up separately because of it being methylized, therefore having a diff. metabolite from Adderall amps. Usually they test for "AMPHETAMINES" &"METHAMPHETAMINES" separately. If by any chance ur Adderall( and u ONLY have taken legally prescribed Adderall) tests Positive for METHamps, RAISE THE HELL AND MAKE THEM confirm it with GC/MS.

I am currently on probation and give urine samples once a week. I also am taking Adderall.  The drug screen that is used on the samples I submit test for:

1) THC

2) Cocaine

3) Benzodiazapine

4) Opiates

5) OxyContin

6) Amphetamine

7) Meth

 

The Adderall flags both the Amphetamine and Meth test strips.  They had to send my test to a lab for further analysis due to my addamance that I had not consumed any illegal drugs.  My doctor told me that when a person consumes Amphetamines, that the body metabolizes them into Meth Amphetamines.  Being a recovering addict and doctor who treats addicts, I have full confidence in his knowledge on the subject.
