Question
If you show a positive for meth on a dipstick drugscreen,but you show a negative for amphetamines,doesn`t this indicate that the positive for meth is actually a false positive?
Hi larry,
I believe "meth" and amphetamine is the same thing. The best is to ask the person who is testing. I specialize in the treatment of drug addiction, not in testing for drugs.
