What drugs show up as methamphetamine's on drug screens?

Any medication related to the amphetamine-class of meds has the potential to show up as an amphetamine in a drug test. Most drug tests will actually test for amphetamines, the class of drugs to which methamphetamine belongs. Some common medications that belong in the amphetamine class are: Adderall, Dexedrine, ProCentra, and Vyvanase. Most amphetamine-class medications are marketed as either treatments for attention deficit or weight loss. Dextromethamphetamine HCl is sold under the trade name Desoxyn, as a rare treatment for narcolepsy or ADHD. Chemically speaking, it's the hydrochloride salt of d-methamphetamine, and has the same biological effects as the street drug. (Though it is metabolized slightly differently in its salt form, as opposed to its freebase "crystal" form found on the street.) However, it is usually prescribed in small doses of 5-15mg, versus the much larger doses recreational users of meth will often take, and has markedly different effects at those doses. Some drug tests will not test solely for methamphetamine, but other amphetamines as well. A number of more common medications for ADD and ADHD contain amphetamines, such as Adderall (mixed amphetamine salts) and Dexedrine (d-amphetamine salts.)

Can you fail a drug test while taking pseudoephedrine?

pseudoephedrine, along with ephedrine belong to the amphetamine class with respect to chemical structure. It is likely to test positive structure for amphetamines. But you're okay as they can rule it out from methamphetamine (which it serves as a precursor to) or you have a Rx in one of the two states that now require it to obtain the substance (Mississippi and Oregon).
