adderall

Avatar m tn My prescription ran out and I used a concerta my concern is if I have a urine test or hair follicle test will the methylphenidate in the concerta show up? Concerta is not my prescribed medicine.
Avatar f tn Stim meds will show up in both urine and hair testing. Hair testing can go back 90 days. Urine tests will show use up to 5 days. Having said that Title One of the American Disabilities Act should protect you. If you have a valid prescription and diagnosis and tell them before the test - I think you would be ok. But, it wouldn't hurt to check. I certainly would not want to work for any medical institution that did not recognize proper treatment for AD/HD.
Avatar m tn In my opinion you will pass with flying colors. Congrats to you on getting and staying clean.
Avatar m tn I have a question regarding a recent drug test and the possibility of coming up positive. For about the past month, I was taking one, (on the rare occasion, two) 15 mg form of generic adderall in order to lose weight and stay awake during early morning hours, as I am in the process of joining the military. I am not prescribed adderall. The last one I took was last Saturday morning at roughly 7am, today is Friday, so roughly 6 days have passed since last taking any.
Avatar n tn Doubt if the adderall made you sick and black out - that was probably something else they put in. But adderall will still show up on a drug test for awhile.
Avatar f tn On the drug test aspect, Vyvanse is out of your system exponentially faster than Adderall. The half life of V is 47 minutes compared to a half life of 9-14 hours for Adderall. Example for those unaware how half-lifes of drugs work. 2 subjects; 1 takes 30mg of V, other takes 30mg of Adderall at 12pm. In 47 minutes @ 12:47pm, there will be 15mg (or half original dose) of the parent drug in V user's system.
Avatar f tn Most drug screening test screen for opiates, PCP, cocaine, marijuana, and amphetamines. Adderall XR does contain amphetamines, so it is likely that you would test positive. You should inform your employer that you are taking this medication.
Avatar n tn On the 5 panel tests we use at work, A is used as for amphetamines. I am prescribed Adderall, so it picks it up every time as a positive. I used to have to bring in my prescription to prove that I am not abusing or misusing drugs, but now they know what to expect. Different types of drug screenings have different abbreviations though. The best way to find out is to call and ask.
Avatar f tn I became addicted to oxycodone 15mg in 2012 after my first back surgery, obviously I was on them while I was in the hospital for 7days after surgery then took them for about 4 days once I got home. I tried to stop and became sick and realized I was addicted. I go to a pain clinic for my chronic pain. Since then I had surgery on my elbow and just 2 weeks ago I had another back surgery. My oxycodone has never been upped in dosage so of course it doesn't help with the pain.
Avatar f tn they will not routinely drug test a baby without CAUSE to think the mother is taking drugs.. the adderall listed is an amphetamine and shouldnt be taken during pregnancy anyway.. so it seems like your friend needs to look at her situation and determine what is more important.. a baby that fails a drug test for drugs she was supposidly prescribed.... or if her baby is going to be healthy due to her taking meds that isn't recommended during pregnancy...
Avatar n tn depends on how many and how long you've been taking it.......lots of water exercise, metabolism are all factors........stays in the system for a few days......a good week and you should be fine......I hope. When is your test and how many and how long? Nauty............

Avatar m tn C (a social worker at the parole office) once a month and that I submit to a drug test once a week and that I take my prescibed medications as ordered. Like I said my doctor perscibed me adderall. Parole knew this and was okay with this even though adderall is an amphetimine and will test positive as such. Well about a year ago while taking adderall I caught a parole violation for a dirty test.
Avatar n tn According to the regulatory agency, they received safety information concerning the association of sudden deaths, heart-related deaths, and strokes in children and adults taking recommended doses of Adderall and Adderall XR. This risk of Adderall death seemed particularly high for individuals with structural heart abnormalities. In response to these findings, the FDA issued an advisory warning about the possible risk of death, but allowed the drug to remain on the market.
Avatar m tn I am currently taking adderall, how will this affect an upcoming drug screen for possible job placement?
Avatar f tn My son who is 5 and has been taking Adderall 5mg since 5-07 for ADHD and meds was recently increased to 10mg in morning and 2.5mg at noon has had nightly episodes of waking up screaming and "scared" look on face with shaking of arms& legs and sweating, I took him to doctor who ordered EEG but said it is most likely night terrors.
Avatar n tn After reading many stories on-line of pregnant women taking adderall, I decided to start taking it again after the 3rd month at 1/2 the dose, which is 10mg a day. Does anyone believe that after the crucial period of development, lets say in your 6th month, would it be okay to do things you wouldn't do in the beginning? Like, take your meds (adderall), or have a glass of chardonnay? Once every weekend? I am in conflict, being that I am 6 months today.
Avatar m tn s forum regarding a common STD which is a bacterial infection and the women were discussing Adderall. Sure enough, there were tons of ladies complaining that they have had an increase in all that is bacterial infections since taking the medicine. It seems to be linked, Bacterial Infections and Adderall. I plan on discussing this issue with my doctor on my next visit and I would strongly suggest you do too! Good luck my friend.
Avatar n tn Then when she came home in May the acne started getting worse. She upped her adderall because of training/games and a new job. So she was basically taking it almost every day. Her face broke out horribly. Worse it has ever been. I took her to two dermatologists. Nothing was helping. It was steadily getting worse. I googled acne and adderall and saw several blogs about people experiencing the same thing after being on adderall.
Avatar m tn Apparantly it is, "Yes, they are packed with caffeine, a well known stimulant. Like any other stimulant, the drug can elevate alertness, mood, awareness, and energy. Adarol also contains Tyrosine (4-hydroxyphenylalanine) which can cause nausea, headache, fatigue, heartburn, and joint pain. And it contains Geranium Extract which can upset the stomach and cause the immune system to become more active. Which in turn would increase the symptoms of auto-immune diseases.
