Yes...you ABSOLUTELY CAN test positive for Amphetamines if you have been taking medication containing pseudephedrine.
METH breaks down in a persons system and shows up as Amphetamines in just a short period of time.
If you are taking a TIME RELEASE cold medicine that has Pseudophed in it...it continually releases it into your system...and...if you take it more often than prescribed...it can definitely read a false positive for Meth/Amphetamine useage.
This happened to my son who is on probation and even through all of the threats of starting all over with his drug treatments when he had been totally clean for a year..there was no amount of talking that was convincing his PO until he continued to deny it...at which time they ran his test through the 'second' level of testing. This second level is more defined and actually tells exactly what has been ingested.
His...came back that he indeed took PSEUDOPHED...during the time that he had a severe cold !
So IF you are telling the truth and you are CLEAN...stick to your guns ! Don't let anyone attempt to scare you into admitting guilt.
Yes you can absolutely test positive for meth using Lipozene
My daughter was in rehab for meth abuse and was put on Geodon for her bipolar disorder. She never tested positive for meth in over a year while she was taking Geodon. However, her results were continuously positive for benzos (which she was not taking).
not sure bout meth but deffinetly DEATH
Yes it will likely be positive.
Yes! Since Meth is made from it, if you take enough of it, you can eventually test positive for methampethamines. You can also test positive for meth if you take a lot of Sudafed and other cold medicines.
meth
No, meth will make you test positive for meth.
There is no cold medication that shows up as Meth on a drug test. Sudafed is used in the manufacture of Meth, but taking Sudafed will not make you test positive. While there are amphetamine based meds on the market, the test is looking for certain chemicals uniquely found in Meth. However, since meth is an amphetamine based drug, it is possible that a drug test could show a positive result if you are taking amphetamine based medicine. A drug test should not show a positive result in those circumstances, however not every manufacturer makes their tests the same. It would be your responsibility to inform the tester if you are taking amphetamine based meds PRIOR to the test.
Even if sent to a lab, it shouldn't show up as meth at all. The tests are broken down and they will look for the poisons that are used in meth. I have talked to drug counselors regarding this very thing and was assured this fact. Good luck. I would stop using the Sudafed if you are worried about it.
Yes most ADHD drugs are stimulants and maybe picked up as a positive for Meth. AS a side note many Meth users are actually undiagnosed for ADHD. They are self medicating for ADHD. These are the Meth users that work and keep a job.
Meth and marijuana
no. while methylphenidate is a dopamine reuptake inhibitor like meth, it is not an amphetamine so it won't show up as anything.
