Though it is classified under the amphetamine and phenethylamine family, it is not actually an amphetamine, but rather an appetite suppressant used to treat obesity called an anorectic. It can however, pop positive for amphetamine on a drug test, but then they can test further to show it was adipex. (If you have an rx you are good) Personally I have taken adipex a day and a half before a test and passed, but I have read all over the internet people saying it can cause a false positive. One way you could get the answer for yourself would be to buy an OTC drug test and take the test after using adipex for two days and see what happens!

It depends on when you last took it as well as how much water you drink. Adipex normally stays in your system for about 3 days but it could be a day or two either way depending on your metabolism.

Approximately 3-7 days, depending on amount taken; as well as amount of water consumed (elimination).

Even though Adipex, a brand name for the drug phentermine, is not an amphetamine compound, it sometimes shows positive as "amphetamine" on drug screens.

Its always a good idea to tell them what prescription drugs you are taking. If you need to bring in the prescription bottles thats fine. But no, it won't.

even though they're very similar (phentermine just has an extra methyl group) it shouldn't test for amphetamine

Should you disclose prescription drug adipex for employment test and how long in system?

Adipex is a brand name of phentermine. Adipex is made by Gate Pharmaceuticals and comes in 37.5mg white with blue specs oblong tablets. Phentermine may cause a positive result in urine screening tests for Amphetamines because it is chemically similar to Amphetamines. Adipex stays in your system for 1-7 days. Depending on your metabolism and how much water you drink;)Since it will show up on a drug test, you should disclose it - along with a statement that it has been prescribed for you. They may ask for a doctor's confirmation of the prescription if they think the test came out positive, but it should not be reported to the prospective employer as a "positive" on a drug test since it is something a doctor prescribed.
