Adderall Drug Test Small Dosages (Page 2) (Top voted first)

Updated

I took adderall 30mg XR once in june and will take one more in sept (just one time in sept). It helps me focus when i take practice exams for my career (exam days are about 8 hours). I have read that after 5 days it will be pretty much gone - is this true? Will the quantity i have taken show up on a hair drug test? Will the small amount i have taken show up on a drug test (urine) if i have waited 5 or more days after taking it to take the urine test?

Thanks all!

i go to a suboxone clinic once a monthme ,last month I ask the doctor if she could help me with adhd meds and set me up with a expensive doctor and long hours of testing.but I went to my family doctor and ask him if he could treat me ,he said yes and gave me 20mg to take everyday.i want to know how long should I stop using before going back to suboxone clinic for urine test(the kind they send off)please help i do not think my suboxone dr will like me getting adderall from family dr.I have been tested for adhd over 10 yrs ago but about 3yrs ago i just stopped taking it,but I think I still suffer from adhd.

OK. I've noticed a lot of these answers are from people who apparently mis-read the initial question. YES: Adderall, being amphetamine, will trigger the same positive that meth or any other amphetamine drug will on a standard test because they have the same metabolytes.
To answer this question, if you take ONE Adderall 30mg, you should be clear for urinalysis within 5 days. It might be more or less depending on your metabolism. Saliva test probably clear within 3 days. Since a hair test doesn't depend on your body metabolizing the drug and getting rid of it, it will be in your hair indefinitely, until that section grows out and is cut. Being such a small amount, I'm not sure if it would register on a hair follicle test, though.

Im prescribed 30mg of Adderall once a day not the XR the regular tablets and have submitted 3 drug tests and all 3 tests keep coming up negative for amphetamines. I don't understand why it's not showing up I take my medication everyday. Can anyone answer my question???

Wow It is crazy how answers vary. I was worried because I took I half a 20 tablet 13 days ago and had. UA at pain/ doc today. Everyone incl. Mayo clinic says 5 days max -however reason for concern is couple years ago adderal showed at doc 12 days after taking only one and nothing else. Also had suboxone in UA before 10 days after taking one over couple day span got me kicked out. So not sure anyone can know for sure but will let you know next month if adderal was out or not. 13 days should be enough but 12 wasn't before so i really hope so

That is completely untrue. Amphetamine IS adderall. Adderall is made of Amphetamine salts. Methamphetamine shows up as Methamphetamine. They are two different things and most drug tests will test for both of these in two separate categories. For the people who are taking adderall and testing negative, you are lucky. But most tests DO test for adderall and unless you are one of the lucky few, you will come up positive if you take it. Adderall has a half life. Meaning every 12 hours after taking it 1/2 will be left in your system. So if you take 30mg at 9am, then at 9pm you will have 15mg in your system, then at 9am the next day you will have 7.5 mg and so on until it is undetectable. Other factors also affect how long it stays in your system such as your metabolism, how your body metabolizes the drug, how much fluid you drink, your weight, etc. So you also can not completely rely on the 1/2 life rule. If you have a legitimate prescription for adderall then all you have to do is bring that prescription with you to your drug test, then it won't matter that you're urine is positive for amphetamines.

I infrequently take Adderall, but for the past week and a half I have been taking 10mg most days because I was studying for the GRE. I was just drug tested (urine sample) in order to volunteer at a local hospital, and they called to tell me the test was positive for Adderall. So, YES, even small amounts of Adderall might show up on a drug test.

No it will not. You must take it four days in a row before your test. Get on that bro

My sister is on Adderall 30mg, she's in the army and they gave her a drug test to get her new job... Sure enough it tested positive for meth! She is definitely NOT taking meth!

Drugs like methamphetamine, MDMA, crank - your street drugs - show up as methamphetamines. For Adderall, when they have to have a test it's a separate bar on the cup that says amphetamines. There is a different test for amphetamines and methamphetamines. Adderall shows up as an amphetamine, and when you do drugs like Meth, Molly, MDMA, etc, they show up as methamphetamines. That's why when some employers give you a drug test they are testing for illegal drugs and that would fall under methamphetamines not amphetamines.... Hope this helps someone.

I'm curious about the true accuracy of UA drug test. I've been on adderral 30 MG for 5 years and give myself breaks when not working or in school. But I have been getting negative drug test more times then I can count. Today they said they may not fill my script. It made me feel as if I'm doing something wrong with my meds. I took a half of one before I went to Dr. And to make me feel like a drug dealer was unbelievable. I am a RN and have begged to take my blood to test to show I take that med everyday I work. Please if anyone can give me a factual reason so I can share with my doctorm

Adderal is very water soluble and acidic food and drinks also help accelerate it leaving the body by her drinking tea and water she is basically flushing it out of her system.

I passed a hair test! Took me buying a few products and doing some work in the shower for 2 hours but I passed. Ultra-clean, swimmers shampoo, and dog shampoo!! I am not kidding! My hair was dry as the F-word. Cranked the A/C in my car all the way to the clinic (it can re-contaminate with sweat). Cannabis and adderall patient. You're welcome!

I am in the military. I have been percribed 2 10 mg XR ( adderall) a day one in the AM and one in the afternoon. I take my meds everyday as percribed. BUT I have had 3 UA not show my meds.
I am 5'3" and 133 lbs. I am very active from running 3 to 4 days a week plus whatever exercise we do that day. I drink anywhere from a half gallon to a gallon of water everyday. I do use the restroom ALOT.JUST wondering if this has anything to do with my adderall not coming up in my UA

My daughter is on 30mg twice a day of Adderall, yet when she is drug tested either by UA or hair NOTHING at all shows up. How is that? We know that she is abusing the drug but we are having a difficult time proving it. Her spouse is also on 30 mg - three times a day and his test is also always negative. I would think that something would show up??
