Amphetamine may be detected in the urine 3-72 hrs after ingestion. The urine amphetatmine screening test detects the presence of amphetamine-like compounds based on a d-amphetamine concentration of 500 ng/mL or greater. Cross-reactivity is possible with many over the counter drugs and some prescription. Contact the laboratory if MDMA or ephedra testing is needed.

The Siemens Atellica CH Amphetamines assay is used. Testing is for medical purposes only. This test should be used for screening purposes only. Confirmation testing should be considered for positive screens.
