Well, honey, you hit the nail on the head! Sudafedrin contains pseudoephedrine, which is a key ingredient in making crystal meth. Those folks cooking up a storm in their makeshift labs are just trying to get their hands on that sweet, sweet pseudoephedrine to whip up their illegal concoction. Just remember, cooking meth is not only illegal but also extremely dangerous, so stay far, far away from that mess.
No, sudafed will not show up as methamphetamine on a drug test. While its part in creating meth is most imperative it is only a mere part of the equation.
Even if sent to a lab, it shouldn't show up as meth at all. The tests are broken down and they will look for the poisons that are used in meth. I have talked to drug counselors regarding this very thing and was assured this fact. Good luck. I would stop using the Sudafed if you are worried about it.
Sudafed, (psuedoephedrine can be used to make meth) Dextromethorphan (cough meds ) Prescription pills (they did it somehow
Perhaps pseudoephedrine (Sudafed) or ephedrine.
No it will not - at least not on the regular drug tests given to members of the public.If you are an athlete/sports-star you will receive an advanced test, and in these cases Sudafed will show up.But for the likes of you and me: No, Sudafed will not show up in a normal drug test.
Sudafed looks like meth, not opiates. St. John's Wort shouldn't show up as anything.
In my experience you can fail for amphetamines after taking sudafed. Sudafed contains pseudo-ephedrine, an ingredient in the manufacture of meth-amphetamine. You need at least 72 ours to get pseudo-ephedrine out of your system.
I teste positive for meth at pain manag i told the doctor it was aderal sudafed and ritalan doctor said she was going to send it to the lab and made an appointment for the results in two weeks should i go to the appiintment
sudafed can give u a false positive for meth be careful
Yes! Since Meth is made from it, if you take enough of it, you can eventually test positive for methampethamines. You can also test positive for meth if you take a lot of Sudafed and other cold medicines.
There is no cold medication that shows up as Meth on a drug test. Sudafed is used in the manufacture of Meth, but taking Sudafed will not make you test positive. While there are amphetamine based meds on the market, the test is looking for certain chemicals uniquely found in Meth. However, since meth is an amphetamine based drug, it is possible that a drug test could show a positive result if you are taking amphetamine based medicine. A drug test should not show a positive result in those circumstances, however not every manufacturer makes their tests the same. It would be your responsibility to inform the tester if you are taking amphetamine based meds PRIOR to the test.
