False Positive Hair Test For Methamphetamine (Top voted first)

Updated

The DHS is claiming I tested positive for Amphetamines and methamphetamine on a hair test performed on July 27 2014 through omega lab. Knowing that I have not used methamphetamine since June 2013, I had a second hair test performed on August 11 2014 through another testing lab which came back negative for amphetamine and methamphetamine. I am prescribed methylphenidate 20mg and dexomethylphenidate 4mg daily. Do you have an opinion on the discrepancies and possible causes of the discrepancies that could have affected these results?

They are not reliable. Cal test in palm springs just reported two false positives for my grandson's hair.

Got it retested and are clean.

Labs are not reliable. Get retested.
