Urine Test Ritalin

Took Ritalin on Friday, had a UA that was sent to the lab on Monday. Will i pass? ## I took ritalin on tuesday and I have a drug test on friday. Will I pass that test? ## I am on lactulose (3-4 tablespoons daily). I also take Ritalin 20 mg 3x's daily. The lactulose runs through me like water daily non-stop. My doctor had me take a urine test and the Ritalin didn't show up in my urine. I gave her a urinalysis 48 hours after taking my last Ritalin. Could the lactulose be the reason why it didn't show up? ## I took 10mg of Ritalin at 0800. Will it show up in a 5 panel urine test at 10:30? I keep finding information on how long it is in your body, but I want to know how quickly its presence appears in urine after taking it and if it will show up on a standard test? ## What are t...

I by accident drank my roommates coffee which had 3 milligrams of Ritalin in it at 8 PM on Sunday evening. I have a drug test (which tests for Ritalin) at 7 AM on tuesday morning. What can I do to get it out of my system before the drug test. How long would it take to get that 3 milligrams of Ritalin out of my system. I don't regularly or normally take Ritalin I took it by accident. Please let me know ASAP with any suggestions or information. ## 1 Ritalin will show up only on tests which specifically test or on an in depth toxicological diagnostic test. 2 Ritalin has a short half life, but that means little. Just because the 'active drug' is no longer in your blood, does not mean the metabolite will not be found on a tox screen. 3. Most 'drug screens' I have given ar...

Can ritalin and concerta stimulants show up in a urine drug screen? I take those medications, and twice now I've tested positive for cocaine. I haven't did any coke, since back in the 1990's. If anyone can help answer my questions, and give me some documentation, that I can show my probation officer. I'd be very thankful! ## Both Ritalin and Concerta contain Methylphenidate and no, neither has been known to cause false positives for Cocaine. Learn more drug test details here. Had you taken anything else, even over the counter products? ## not likely at all, ritalin/concerta would not show up as cocaine in a urine screen. in fact the 5 panel or even the ten panel test do not test for ritalin. ritalin is a methlphenidate not an amphetamine. highly unlikely for the test to ...

Someone please help me! I screwed up and admit I abused ritalin the night before my pain clinic doctor gave me a urine test, so my question is since I took about fifty 20mg ritalin pills the night before and the doctor sends my urine out to a lab will it show up that I was abusing methylphenidate and thus leading to my discharge from pain management? Please respond if you know what you're talking about I'd really appreciate it

If I took adderall and ritalin the night before a drug test that is going to be sent to a lab, will it show up that I took two separate things? I know they are both Amphetamines but will it show that I took both of them? ## While ritalin can show up on a urine test as a false positive , it is unlikely to do so. Some cheap urine tests may detect ritalin as a false positive as amphetamines, however if you are getting drug tested by a reputable company , its alll but almost cetain it will not show on a drug test. Ritalin is a methlyphenidate not an amphetamine. the chances it coming in a urine screen is unlkely. can it happen yes, but will it happen most likely not. ## Dude ritalin won't show up on a urine test but Adderall will show up as amphetamine I know this cuz I got urine tested...

I took 60 mg of Ritalin in a course of three days and didn't have anything for three days after, but on the third day I had a drug screen from the methadone clinic. Will it show up? Before that I have been clean for almost two years. I have never failed a drug test since I've been going to the clinic. My sobriety means everything and since I had that slip I'm worried to death. I can't sleep or eat. I'm afraid I'm going to lose everything including my family if I failed. Please help me and let me know if I'm going to be ok. Thanks ## I am assuming you had a urine drug screen!! Amphetamine has a detection period of about 1-2 days (approx) in a urine drug test. My best educated guess would be that you will be negative on the clinic test. If they did a Hair Drug ...

I stopped taking Concerta 3 days prior to a urine test and my Dr said not only did it show up, he claims it's Ritalin? I do not take Ritalin. Why is it showing up and as Ritalin? ## Did you ever figure this out. And how much were you taking? ## Concerta is extended release methylphenidate ?? So they should of shown up the same in a test ??

I take focalin and I have to take a urine test for a new job, will i pass? I take 20mg everyday, once a day. ## I've taken a couple focalin one day and a concerta a day or two after. Will either show up in a urine test? ## You should be fine. I've passed urine drug tests only an hour after taking a Focalin capsule and I didn't do anything special like drinking a ton of water or anything like that. I honestly don't believe it even shows up or else they need a separate test to look for it and most don't. ## Will Focalin show up as an amphetamine on a drug test? Will it show up different than ritalin? ## It doesn't show up at all. I know a few people that go to the methadone clinic and they test one a month and for every drug there is and that never pops. Now addera...

My son use to take meth, but has been clean for over 70 days. He takes 60 mg ritlian a day, 20 - 40 mg lasix a day, potassium each day. On days that he has a migraine headache he will take 2 Excedrin Migraine tables with a can of coke, and repeat it every 4 - 6 hours until the headache goes away. He is on probation so has to have two or three urine drug test a week. Some come back as dilute, so they give him lead way on them as he takes the lasix and drinks lost of water working outside all day. But once in a while when he has taken all his meds it come back positive. Will this combination of meds call a false postive? ## The Methylphenidate in the Ritalin has been known to cause false positives for various types of amphetamines, including methamphetamines. Even being on probation thoug...

im on ritalin ive had a urine test it came back postive for cocain i've also had police test ritalin dust and that came back postive for cocain is this posable ## i just received the same notice today for a police drug test. i popped for cocaine but seriously have never once in my life done it. i am prescribed ritalin so there HAS to be something going on with that. sad thing is that they look at the drug test as the end all, never admitting there could possibly be a mistake. so i'm stuck writing a letter for appeal....which will probably wind up in the garbage. i am so pissed right now, i dont have a clue of what to do about it. what makes it worse is that everyone assumes i'm lying. if you had any resolution i'd love to hear about it. {edited for privacy}

I am on suboxone and my suboxone doctor sent my urine to be tested at a laboratory. She documented the prescriptions I am currently taking except Concerta HCI 36mg ER and my urine test came back positive for ritaline acid and amphetamine. Would it be possible to be positive for these two drugs? If so why wouldn't my suboxone doctor give all my prescribed medications to the laboratory that tested my urine? I got a registered letter stating that I was no longer a patient with this suboxone clinic. I'm very confused about this and why would I test positive for ritaline acid and amphetamine. I have been taking generic concerta HCI 36 mg er for ADHD for 2 years and my suboxone doctor seen my list if prescriptions every month for the last 3 months and knew I was taking 36 mg concerta ...

I took a .25 orange zanax. The next day about 15 hours after taking the xanax I had a urine drug test. This was the first time I took a xanax. Will it show up on the test? ## Very possibly Nicky as the Orange Xanax are generally .5 mg, which is twice what you thought you took? ## Can any body be prescribed Ritalin ? ## If you can convince a psychiatrist. ## I'd say if your not a chronic user, the half life formula says it'll take about 3 days for .5 to leave your system undetectable. .25 will take 2 days. You may be ok though. Every body is different ## If you have a Dr prescribe for ADD ADHD etc. ## Took 3 .05 xanax on Friday night have a drug test Tuesday morning will this be out of my system it is a urine test. ## I took .50 mg of xanax for ten days.

I take Concerta 36mg daily, for ADHD, and am subject to random drug tests. I have heard that Concerta will show up as Methamphetamine on a urine test. Is this true? ## Concerta contains the active ingredient Methylphenidate, it is a stimulant medication that is similar to Amphetamines and Cocaine, so yes, it has been known to cause false positives, but usually for Amphetamines. Are there any other questions or comments? ## I just took concert yesterday and had a dipstick drug test that I spit on it and blow the saliva down the tube what would it show up as on that drug test ## No. It contains ZERO amphetamines. It is a time released version of methylphenidate which is the active carbon in Ritalin. ## ok, So I need some help here. I had a surprise drug and alcohol test.. The night before...
