If Taking Adderall Legally And Am Drug Tested After Vyvanse Will I Get Fired
(Newest replies first)

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?!?

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.

It's nice to be able to use the forums to get information. The problem is that when a person is in need of help or useful info they turn to it, googling, searching away til they can't stand it. But when there issues are resolved they do t follow up. It's quite selfish. I don't mean to turn this into something it isn't but it would be nice if everyone would be responsible and follow through with their end.

No it shouldn't. I have taken numerous Drug test trough work and they can only detect that it's an amphetamine... And will just require proof ur prescribed an amphetamine. Adderall and Vyvanse are very similar. I was worried about the same thing awhile back and since I've taken about 5 drug screens all sent to a lab. So you will be fine.

Hey, my 10 panel probation drug testing showed it as amphetamines. I'm prescribed vyvanse but took 4 10mg adderall. Only way you can get messed up is not having your script or a false Positive show up.
