never u mind Addition to "never you mind." "Never you mind" is a good answer if the person asking the question is looking to cover the use of unprescribed Concerta - i.e., drug abuse, the unlawful use of a controlled substance you do not want the DEA (or your employer, your coach, your local law enforcement, your fill-in-the-blank) to discover. But, unfortunately, there is a legitimate need for the information requested. I am spending hours evaluating a similar question - how long must a mid-teen be off a 45 mg/day prescription to pass an in-competition drug test by the US Anti-Doping Agency. Concerta is approved for out-of-competition use by the USADA. It appears to be approved for regular season, but not playoff or championship use, by the NCAA. But it is banned for in-competition use by the USADA and for NCAA post-season competitions. So how long before a drug-testing competition does a mid-teen (or other person) go off prescription meds, which their medical provider has determined are needed to facilitate "normal" functioning, to avoid disqualification? I have found answers ranging from 1 to 90 days, depending on testing protocals and other factors. I have even sent an email to the USADA asking if it is aware of resources we can look at. I hope somebody smarter than me provides a better answer to this question, even though its use by drug-abusers is easy to foresee.

Drug text results adderall and Concerta?

I'm assuming you meant TEST results? If so Adderall and Concerta MAY cause a positive drug test for amphetamine containing drugs (ie meth). it depends on when you took them and for how long, also, urine concentration is a BIG factor (never do a drug test with your first urine of the day). However, generally speaking Adderall and Concerta usually out of your system in 24-48 hours if you arent a regular user. If you have a prescription for these drugs or any other similar drugs like Ritalin then you should inform the person administering the test BEFORE HAND. hope this answers your question

That would depend on what drugs they are testing for. If they test for methyphenidate then you don't have a chance of passing.


How long after stopping Concerta will you test positive for it in blood and urine tests?

Concerta, which contains the active ingredient methylphenidate, typically remains detectable in urine for about 1-3 days after the last dose, though this can vary based on individual metabolism, dosage, and frequency of use. In blood tests, methylphenidate is usually detectable for a shorter period, generally up to 24 hours. However, factors like hydration, body mass, and overall health can influence detection times. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized information.

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!!
