“Drug test for Adderall?”
This is a drug test question. I am prescribed Adderall and I had a pre-employment drug screening. I am prescribed 40 mg Adderall XR and use it Monday through Friday. Sometimes I don’t even take the full prescribed amount depending on the day I have ahead of me. The last time I used Adderall was on April 15 and I took my urine test on April 27. It was a non-dot pre-employment drug screening so I know the thresholds are different. I do not want my employer to know I take medication and would rather not disclose that. I just want to know if I passed my drug screening. Was 13 days enough time for me to pass since I use it Monday to Friday? I would greatly appreciate it since I know this drug can accumulate in the body.

Hello, Generally, Adderall is detectable for 72-96 hours after last use.
Drug Test for Adderall
Without knowing what particular drug test they are using, it is impossible to say with certainty,but dextroamphetamine, the ingredient in Adderall, is relatively short-acting (about 10 hours),and really does not accumulate in tissues much. It is usually present for no more than 2-4 days,so your test is very likely to be negative. However, not telling your employer about your medicalhistory can backfire on you later.
