I got drugged on new years and it turned out to be methamphetamine. Now I Have this itchy rash all over my chest and back. What can I do to get rid of it? The meds the doctors have me are not working. Please help! ## Hey, sorry to hear about what had happened. I hope the symptoms have started to subside since you last posted. One thought I had would be to look into Activated Charcoal, since it's available OTC and is medically recognized as a way to detox from an overdose of various types of prescription drugs. Ref: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8037387 (Methamphetamine toxicity prevented by activated charcoal in a mouse model) Another idea for treating an itchy rash might be to use a few drops of lavender essential oil in a mixture of coconut oil throughout the day. Lavender oil is also m...

I took at drug test at TASC on the 18th of August and then i took a second hair follicle test at PSI on the 8th of September to prove that my prescriptions made my first test inaccurate. The results will shock you. My second test stated 1,741 my first test done at TASC run by CPS stated 91,746. OMG is right. Case manager asked me "why are you doing a second hair follicle test if the numbers are going to be the same?" I told her they were to prove that my prescriptions had a negative impact on my first test. Spoke with a lab technician, he said there is no way my number could go from the 90,000 to almost 2000 in only 20 days. The numbers should have been closer, but if you cover up the 9 on the first test results, you can see why I am sceptical that the first test may have been a...

I used meth 3 days ago and did very little. Does anybody know how long will it show for through a blood test, im getting one in november. Will the methamphetamine still show? Please help. Thank you. ## The time it's detectable in a blood test is usually about 3 days, after last use. It's going to vary from person to person, because everyone is different, but that's an approximate time frame. Learn more drug test details here. Are there any other questions or comments? ## it'll take about 3 days it all depends on ur body weight, smoke weed leave that meth s*** alone ## I am leaving it alone, thanks Jon.

What are the effects of mixing Zanaflex with methamphetamine? ## Are there any reported dangers of taking zanaflex to calm you down after taking methamphetamine? ## I haven't had methamphetamine since I was twenty and I'm now thirty two. I used to do it more often back then but I also drank alcohol so it kinda mellowed it all out. I no longer drink or use methamphetamine. I have been sober four years. I never used to take it for pain but I heard that it could help with pain and I have chronic back pain for years now and I am building a tolerance to my Percocet that I take regularly. I have spoke with my doc and he won't up the dose yet so this last month I had a few major strenuous days and I took a little more to help so I ran out early. Stupid me I know well I get even dum...

I have a implanon implant and in three months it needs to be replaced. I have a new boyfriend and we have a lot of sex. I also use methamphetamine and was wondering if it would make my birth control not as potent. I feel like I may be pregnant as my cervix is hard. I took two pregnancy tests already but they both said not pregnant. what can I do now?

I used less than .5 gram of methamphetamine on may 26. That was the first and only time. Is there a chance I will pass a hair follicle on July 28? I have heard that one time use will not show up. I hope that is true. That was my first and only time of trying it. ## I would be interested in your results I am in the same situation and gard to find for one time use ## I found out today I PASSED! I also did my hair with the vinegar, clean and clear, tide and t gel wash thing like 4 times. Hope this helps. The lady who did my test said that ONE time use will not show up. I asked. Good luck!

WHAT MEDICINE HAS METHAMPHETAMINE IN THEM ## Hello, Tiger! How are you? The name brand would be Desoxyn. The FDA has approved it to treat ADHD and to aid in weight loss in some cases where a person is morbidly obese. It carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia, irritability and anorexia. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Abbott (sp?) Labs has NOT BEEN SHIPPING Desoxyn for quite a while now. When I needed some for the son of a high school classmate, I had to twist a few arms, call some exec I went to medical school with and do something I hate — throw my weight around. You see, they got a bad rap over marketing Nembutal (pentobarbital C-II), the sleeping pill that Marilyn Monroe OD's on, but I had...

I've been taking methamphetamine for several years and have tried tapering several times but fail.. Last week I almost lasted for 3 days but here I am alone, crying and not even 12 hours since my last dose! My only option is to beat this all alone.... HOW??? ## Hello, Lamb! How are you? How much have you been taking? The only good and safe solution is going to be for you to get medical help with this, I know that's not likely what you want to hear, but it is the truth of the matter. The FDA lists the possible withdrawal symptoms as including nausea, fever, chills, diarrhea, vomiting, anxiety and seizures. ## As a doctor (I'm a shrink), please get medical help. Since I started practicing about 25 years ago, we didn't think there were ANY physical withdrawal symptoms from ...

My friend is desperately wanting to quit Tapering off methamphetamine after about 5 or 6 years of using. she only uses it now as needed to curb to pains she feels from withdrawals and has gone from using daily to only using every 2 or 3 days over the passed 5 months. She is trying to "taper" and doesn't use it to feel high anymore. she eats well, sleeps regularly and never looks tweaked out. Never misses work. she says she gets physically sick when withdrawing and would need a week or two off work in order to go cold turkey, so tapering is the only option she has right now. She says she hates everything about it and what its done to her and wants this taper schedule to work. Has anyone done this before, and if so, can you share your schedule and the things that worked best f...

If someone took anywhere between .5 to a gram of methamphetamine to a gram (orally), over a 90 day period, will that show up on a hair test for pre employment? ## A Hair Drug Test is meant to show consistent use over time. A 1.5 inch sample, cut at the scalp line, will go back 90 days. If you didn't do more than you stated my best professional guess would be that you will be negative on a Hair 5 Drug Panel hair test. ## Thank you very much and I am praying that will hold up ## Hey Tommy, so did you end up passing the test? ## I've been taking methamphetamine for about 3 months. Would this show up on a hair test or not? I haven't taken any in a week now. What is considered regular use? ## Regular use would be considered about 2 times per week. That is about the amount that co...

What do you need to take to get off methamphetamines? ## According to my research, because the damage done by meth addiction happens in many areas, treatment is broad and includes immediate detox and subsequent care. The emotion, physical, and social problems meth causes all have to be addressed before sobriety can be maintained. "Meth addiction can be treated. Although acute withdrawal can be completed in a week without the drug, long term withdrawal symptoms will persist. Medical treatment can help with depression and coping skills. The risk for addicts is that they will think one round of withdrawal and suffering has somehow made them less likely to slide back into full blown addiction. This is not the case. It has been shown that the changes meth makes in the brain can take up t...

I'm on community corrections with just 2 months left till I'm released. Went in last week for my weekly UA and meeting with the PO. I tested positive for Methamphetamine he said and wanted me to confess to a relaspe. I am a addict and I disagree with the "quite on command" way the legal system does a offender who's a real addict. Its a set-up to fail and they know this. So you go under the radar with booze or just listen to your brain which is not your friend and do your maneuvers till your caught and back in a cage. So here's the deal, I have a script for ritlin from the doc. I take regularly. The PO know of it, it usually isn't a issue cuz it don't show up on a standard drug test plus its prescribed and I haven't done any Methamphetamine!! But a had...
