I am in pain clinic which prescribes oxycontin 80 mg and 60 mg, oxycodone 30 mg and 15 mg as well as adderall 30 mg. drug screen came back positive for ritalin, not adderall and have been threatened with dismissal. Any ideas on how false positive might be answer or what else could be the problem? I absolutely live and die by my medication as prescribed for thorasic osteomyilytis, ADD and carpell tunell. I'm terrified of being discharged. Any answers for me??

They are both, amphetamines, there's no way they could have know the difference. Someone ratted you out, or they are just looking for a reason to dismiss you for some reason. Doctors do that a lot of times, the doctor will get paranoid, and dismiss patients to save their own butt.... demand another drug screen else where like at your local hospital......

They are not both amphetamines. Adderal is a combination of two amphetamine salts and Ritalin is methylphenidate which is made up of two phendete isomers ; D and L. While they are both stimulants, Ritalin will not react to an amphetamine reagent. I do agree with the post about doctors being untruthful with patients with regard to reasons why they discharge people from practices but usually it has something to do with unwanted attention from a government agency that has been directed at a practice that distributes a large number of opioid RXs ... Doctors will always bail on patients if they find themselves under scrutiny.
