    Can sudafed give you a false positive for amphetamine? My nephew had a drug test today and told us that he tested positive for amphetamine and all he had taken was sudafed.

    wtf?

    It was court ordered. He has to get a 5 panel drug test twice a week and when he went in this morning, he had a positive result, so they sent him down the street to an actual dr.'s office to piss in a cup there so it could be sent to a lab.

    If he fails because of pseudoephedrine, then wow. There's no way that can happen. They'll figure it out eventually with more advanced equipment. Amphetamine does not produce all of the same metabolites.
