Does Adderall show up in blood tests?

Answer 1

Yes, Adderall's active ingredients are racemic amphetamine and dextroamphetamine, which will result in a positive test result for "amphetamines." The systemic half life of dextroamphetamine (about 75% of Adderall) is about 12 hours and is about 13 hours for levoamphetamine (about 25% of Adderall). The amphetamine concentration in blood can be analyzed to tell whether they are within therapeutic limits as well, meaning if you have a prescription, it can be determined if you take more then what is prescribed. The dextro and levo isomers can also be disinguished from one another, meaning that if you are prescribed Adderall and only test positive for Dextroamphetamine (I.E. if you took Vyvanse or Dexedrine instead), that would alsoshow up.

Answer 2

I would have to say that "Adderall" will show up as amphetamine and depending on the screen how much consumed will be reconized by the tech., but pee in a cup test only have a bar graph of how much is currently in your urine so being that it is a blood test, I'm sure they can get a more accurate diagnoses of just how muchis consumed. but to answer your question: adderall will show up as amphetamine. Now the technition will be able to determine by a series of questions, if it was adderall or illegal street drugs containing amphetamine, and the definition of amphetamine is:

Amphetamine, and related drugs such as methamphetamine are a group of drugs that act by increasing levels of norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine in the brain.[3] It includes prescription CNS drugs commonly used to treat attention-deficit disorder (ADD) and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults and children. It is also used to treat symptoms of traumatic brain injury and the daytime drowsiness symptoms of narcolepsy and chronic fatigue syndrome. Initially it was more popularly used to diminish the appetite and to control weight.

Brand names of the drugs that contain amphetamine include Vyvanse,Adderall, and Dexedrine. The drug is also used illegally as a recreational club drug and as a performance enhancer. The name amphetamine is derived from its chemical name: alpha-methylpHenethylamine. Some biochemistry textbooks also claim that the name 'amphetamine' is derived from an abbreviation for "amphoteric amine," indicating that the compound can act as both an acid (proton donor) and a base (proton acceptor) depending upon its chemical environment. This origin seems unlikely, however, as there is no unique structural feature that makes amphetamine amphoteric; indeed, all primary amines are amphoteric. The name is also used to refer to the class of compounds derived from amphetamine, often referred to as the substituted amphetamines.

Answer 3

No.

Methadone is what gives a positive result for methamphetamine on drug tests.
