False Positive On Drug Test For Amphetamines (Page 2)

Steve Says:
I am on random drug testing for probation and got a letter in the mail from my p.o saying I failed for amphetamines on the 13th of October. I was sick, and not working on the 11th or 12th. I took some OTC medication for my cold. I took some Allegra D and some Day Quil. Will this cause a false positive? How do I go about disputing this. I can't loose my job for going to jail, and certainly am not getting locked up for doing s drug I never would do, nor know where to even find it. What do I do, should I get an attorney?

What if the company is refusing to send to a lab upon my request even if I offer to pay for it? {edited for privacy} The only medication i've taken is cold medicine, how should I go about this?

Tested positive for alcohol with an urine test. Only thing I was taken was Nyquil and Dayquil. How is that possible?

Omg finally an answer that makes sense. I failed the oral swab for amphetamines and I do smoke menthol. Still waiting for the UA results but feel I can wait easier now. I remember they asked if I had had a mint that that sometimes interferes never occured to me about the menthol smokes. Thanks for your post.

I just failed the amp test on a mouth swab. Its happened so much that they knew I smoked menthol cigarettes. So I get to go get a UA tomorrow.
Note to all people going in for a mouth swab - DON'T SMOKE FOR AN HOUR BEFORE HAND! And rinse your mouth with water

I failed a drug test for a job. It said I failed for Amphetamines and the only thing in my system was Sudafed and Dayquil. I don't do drugs or drink alcohol.

Did they send the sample out to a lab for additional testing?
Doing so should determine exactly what you took and rule out any false positives.
There is Pseudoephedrine in the Allegra D and it has been known to cause such false positives and there are also ingredients in some DayQuil and other cold remedies that can do so.
