Apparently the medication Primatene contains the active ingredient ephedrine; which is known to test positive for amphetamines from the research I've done.

Hopefully you can get this situation sorted out. Have you had a chance to ask your doctor about getting re-tested?

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Primatene Details

I hope this helps!

Yes you can test for a false positive. I know some who takes ephedrine plus and it always comes up postive for meth. When the test is sent to the lab they are able ti differentiate between the two so its not a big deal just expensive
