∙ 11y agoIt depends on the test really. If it's a fancy drug test, they'd break drug categories down into specific units, in which case, no, they would show up as different.
If it wasn't very thorough, they'd just both show up as Amphetamines. In which case, yeah, they'd be the same. Because they wouldn't go any further than "Amphetamine."

∙ 14y agoThey show up really well...which is why you need to fold up your prescription and stick it in your wallet. They ask what prescription medicines you're on; if you're prescribed Concerta and it shows up, that's okay because it's supposed to be there.

You are on Concerta Yesterday you started taking your adderall again your program did a urine on you it showed up methapehampetmine will the Concerta and adderall both show up when the lab breaks down?
The Lab can Determine if the substance is adderall-(amphetamine) and or if it's concerta. Concerta's main ingredient is methylphenidate and adderall is amphetamine. a long time ago I was prescribed Concerta, I had also been taking more than I was supposed to and ran out early. During this time I had also had been given a call back for a second interview with Walgreens. I was having bad withdrawls and asked my friend, who was prescribed adderall, to lend me a few until I got my next script. I went to the interview and got the job and had to take a drug screen! I wasn't worried because I thought the adderall would show up the same as concerta(possible meth) I waited anxiously to hear back from Walgreen's, and to my dismay it was the lab calling to tell me that I tested positive for amphetamines. The man asked me what meds I was taking and I told him Concerta, and he said that Concerta isn't amphetamine and asked if I was taking adderall. Than he asked what pharmacy I goto and like most people I go to Walgreen's. I finally told him the truth and was denied the job!! I WAS PISSED!!!! I had to tell my parents it was terrible.... SIDE NOTE: Newer Urine test are now testing for amphetamines to reduce confusion!!
Is con certa better than adderall?
That depends on what you mean by "better." Concerta has less side effects and is generally safer, but Adderall is way more intense.
What drug can be used instead of Concerta?
If Concerta is not working for you, consider similar stimulating amphetamines such as Adderall, Byphentin, and Ritalin. Sometimes a particular one might not work and that is why there are so many versions of the same chemicals. Concerta is released in one big bang (think of it like the Big Bang) at the beginning of the day while something like Adderall is released in many shots throughout the entire day (like a meteor shower); Big Bang vs. Meteor Shower.
