If Taking Adderall Legally And Am Drug Tested After Vyvanse Will I Get Fired

Updated

I have a great job, one i hope to retire from. I work for a very major automobile manufacturer. I had a very minor incident driving a vehicle in the plant. It requires a drug test that had no problem taking due to being prescribed adderall the entire time employed there and have passed 2 drug tests for minor incidents with adderall on my medical chart. after the last test, I decided I would try vyvance, (another ad/hd treatment) from a friend, without a prescription, only because i wasnt going to be driving again for several weeks and would be out of my system long before that. as luck would have it, they gave me a random drug test that night! ...is the lab gonna detect the difference and fire me?!?

I am in the same boat . Friend gave me vyvanse and I take adderall prescribed. I have to take UA's soon and am thinking b/c vyvanse is a partial ingredient of adderall (I believe d-amphetamine /and adderall is a combo of all l-amphetamine and d- amphetamine I should be in the clear. If u get this joe..please rely. Thanks

Your fine Chris, they are both amphetimunes so as long ad you havent taken anything else, your in the clear. My test was even sent across the country to a lab to be inspected, and after getting a mrssege from my human resource dept. to call them, all they needrd was to verify my adderol prescription.

I have a drug test coming up and I'm afraid I won't pass it. I was wondering if there was a way to add an opiate to someone's urine after they've already given the sample? I have someone with clean urine, but to pass my test, I must have oxycontin and/or oxycodone. any ideas?

I myself was taking 50mg of Vyvanse but it seemed it wasn't lasting all day. Therefore my Dr said that adults prefer Adderall over Vyvanse being that u can take Adderall "WHEN NEEDED" since it is instant release. So I began taking 12.5mg (twice) daily and I'll be damned if I dont notice a BIG DIFFERENCE. I was also schooled on the fact that its not necessary that I must take two 25mg to equal the same 50mg Vyvanse dose. Long story short, believe it or not, IT WORKS MUCH BETTER. Its been several days Ive only takin "JUST ONE 12.5mg" and that was it "ALL DAY".. And also YES I DO have a strong tolerance for meds. Its nothing Im proud of BY NO MEANS but Ive been taking 100mg of Methadone for 7yrs now due to a car accident and Ive been dabbing in meds and drugs since around 13 or so. "SAD BUT TRUE".. But regardless of that, I only let it b known so that if my reply can help someone they can also know that YES this person has a high tolerance as well.. But anyways, back to the point of the Adderall v.s Vyvanse, YES "FOR ME" Adderall works MUCH BETTER and I can take it AS NEEDED and YES IT LAST A WHILE and NO I CANNOT TELL A DIFFERENCE being that it is ONLY HALF THE DOSE of the Vyvanse.. Hopefully you can find the correct Med and Dose that helps you as well but dont b nervous when the Dr tells you that we can try Adderall, then say 10-20mg and u want to LAUGH AT EM and your thinking that s*** sure wont help. GIVE IT A SHOT, IT WORKED FOR ME and worked/works VERY WELL... And DO NOT CHEW EM' UP, lol... I'm a pil chewer :-/..... But also YES, swallowing it whole seemed to make a difference as well. Good Luck, hope I was at least a lil help and I hope u find what works and that u have a Dr. who listens to u and doesn't think that Meds work how the book says they do and work the same on everyone. Good Luck..

Am prescribed 60 mg vyvanse I took adderall and had to take a urinalysis the same day. It was sent to the lab. Will the lab be able to tell difference in adderal and vyvanse? I think they usually just determine that its amphetamine and then ask for proof of prescription? Am I wrong?

The lab collector take the urine sample and send it to MRO (medical review officer) in a different state and performed the test there.

If the initial urine test come back positive and then urine is further test with GC-MS. The Gas chromatography test can detect all kind of chemical compound and it isnt just drug.

In like 48 hours MRO will call in 48 hour and ask for photo of the prescription bottle and wont tell you if you pass the drug test and wont tell you type of drug shown on the drug test.

If you fail the drug test then your employer going to withdraw your application and you can request for second drug at your own expense but there is a time frame for retake and usually within 2 days to make the appointment. This can take up a lot of times and employer wouldnt give a second chance to take a urine test.

The best thing to do is move on and look for a different Job. It isnt worth paying out pocket for drug test and fail the test.

Do not add any type opiate to pee without sexually taking it. Main labs and tests test for he metabolite which is the levels tested to make sure the drug was actually processed through the system and Not just added. Someone recently did that to me and I didn’t know and ended up considered a fail bc of that so by no means do that just make sure you have someone or yourself take the actual drug and give t enough time to pass into the system before peeing and I would make sure u or whoever pees once before actually having them pee for the use of your test.

I am taking a pre-employment hair drug screen test. I have a prescription for 20mg of Adderall, 3 x a day. I have never failed a drug test and I have been taking the Adderall for almost 10 yrs. The few times that it has ever come up, I have gotten a call from an MRO, who asks me about my prescription and has me text a picture of the bottle and wants the pharmacy info so he can follow up. There are times when I will double up on the meds for a few days or even a week or so. I guess my real question is, do they only test or look for a presence past the threshold limit and that's it? Does it never matter just how much is in the sample? I mean is it really a check list? 1. amphetamine present? = 2. amphetamine over established amount ng/gl? = 3. Call donor and verify prescription = 4. It doesn't matter if it is just barely over limit or 5 x over?

TEST RESULTS

I'm legally prescribed Vyvanse and ran out and took a two 10mg Adderall the day before I called to get my Rx refilled. I was asked by my prescribing Dr to do a urine test before I could get my Vyvanse filled. I was TERRIFIED they would tell the difference between the two, there are many forums which say they can tell the difference - the Adderall I had taken were mine but from an Rx I had left at my parents house, the Rx was expired and 6 months old.

I took one 10mg Adderall on Wednesday at 1pm and then the second 10mg Adderall at 1pm on Thursday, my urine/drug test was to be done within 48 hours. I waited as long as I could and ended up doing my urine lab test on Saturday at 11:15am.

Nonetheless, I did test positive for amphetamine, but they did not look for Adderall specifically in my urine test. The Vyvanse and Adderal both came back as a single result, positive for amphetamine.

If you're worried about a "general" urine sample from your Dr with a cutoff of 500mg/nL, don't be worried like I was. They didn't break down the drug types to differentiate the two.

Also, for reference, my lab was done by LabCorp.

Hey, just curious if u got the results of your drug screen? Was it sent to a lab or what? I'm prescribed addys but have been taking vyvanse too and because I only have some addys left I don't wanna go 9 days without it and want to get more vyvanse.

So did anyone who is prescribed addy and who took vyvanse pass a test sent to a lab? I know on an instant it will show amphetemine, but what about a lab? Thanks.
