AMPHETAMINE

The amphetamine test detects the presence of amphetamines in the blood, urine, or saliva. Amphetamines are stimulant drugs that affect the central nervous system and are commonly used to treat conditions such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy. However, they can also be abused for their euphoric and performance-enhancing effects. The test is used in clinical and forensic settings to screen for amphetamine use, monitor adherence to prescribed medications, and detect potential abuse. Positive test results can help healthcare providers identify substance use disorders and provide appropriate treatment and support.
