Dr Bill,

I have a pre-employment hair test tomorrow. I have only had Adderall two times in my life. Once on July 14 and once on July 30. They were Adderall 30mg XRs. Do you think this usage will show on a hair test?

I doubt it. Orally consumed you have extensive metabolism of the dextroamphetamine and amphetamine resulting in minimal amounts being present in circulation and for it to be absorbed into the hair matrix at detectable levels requires longer and/or more concentrated exposure.

Thank you so much Dr Bill. All of my friends told me to quit worrying that it was not enough to be bothered about. I really appreciate your timely response. I feel much better now.

Hey muchlove, I am in a very similar position to you. Just curious as to what the results of your drug test were?
