Amphetamines In Screen

Updated

is it possible for energy drinks to show as amphetamines on a hair screen. could a chemical in our bodies cause it to? never ever taken anything, don't even drink and had two tests out of three show positive for amphetamines and do not know what to do.

If I were in your shoes, I would definitely try to dispute this false positive. It does sound like something you ate or drank could have triggered the positive result.

The human body converts many chemicals and substances that we put into our system on a daily basis, so one can only imagine that man made drug tests aren't capable of perceiving beyond the basic structures of what was found.

There is specific testing, such as that done by a gas chromatograph mass spectrometer, which has the ability to distinguish the exact substance in question. This type of testing is not initially performed because of cost, but, is often a follow-up option for those facing serious consequences such as a job loss or jail time. I would ask your doctor or drug testing lab to perform this type of test if you want to try and prove them wrong.

I hope this info helps!

My husband and I both take random drug tests. DFACS placed our children in Foster care on allegations of" on going substance abuse ". We have gone to a place in which we are to be observed. Now I have only been observed 2 times my husband more. When the "collector " signs his name at bottom of test sheet isn't that falsifying a drug test.? They did not watch so they did not follow procedure. Also I use a inhaler and have sinus problems. They do the ten panel tests, my question can my inhaler albutrall cause positive for amphetamines? And can
zantac do the same? I have
also taken phenagin for nausea. Thank you
