No - Tramadol is NOT an amphetamine. It is a narcotic type pain medication and WILL show up on a drug scan as such. If you have been legitimately prescribed the medication, inform your employer, case worker, etc and be prepared to provide your Dr's information. Tell the test administrator that it will appear and that it has been prescribed and make sure your are using the med as prescribed before the test. If of course, that is not the situation you find yourself in cand you are now facing a screen for meth, the likelihood is, I'm afraid, that the Tramadol will show up. The standard screens nearly all check for multiple commonly used/abused agents including alcohol, THC, narcotics, hallucinogens, etc. as well as amphetamines.

I just failed a urine test for Amphetamine, and the ONLY medication or drug I've taken is Tramadol... it would appear that YES, tramadol can trigger a false positive for Amphetamine.. which is really really bizarre and annoying!!!

Well I had the same thing happen to me. Tramadol showed positive for amphetamines.

The reason for this is likely that tramadol has SNRI properties. That N stands for norepinephrine (NE); one of the primary neurotransmitters that amphetamines agonize and inhibit reuptake of.

I suspect this is likely the reason that, at times, tramadol can cause a false positive for amphetamines. I don't know exactly how it is measured but it must have something to do with norepinephrine or its precursor dopamine.

Be sure to note that tramadol does have SNRI properties. This is why it lowers a person's seizure threshold. Talk to a pharmacist about it. Many primary physicians don't even know that tramadol is technically a SNRI.
