Could Taking Adderall Affect The Blood Test Results?

I am going to get blood drawn tomorrow for testing with my thyroid, hcl, ldl, cholesterol and many other things. I am wondering if taking 30 mg of adderall today will show in my blood test tomorrow. I am not overweight and am getting blood tests to just look at my current levels however I m not sure if adderall shows up or if so where it would show up in blood testing.

Adderall contains a combination of amphetamine and dextroamphetamine. Amphetamine and dextroamphetamine are central nervous system stimulants. You have not mentioned why you are taking Adderall. Adderall is a addicting medicine if a take it for a long time. It will harm you rather than benefitting you if you take it for a long time. Never share this medicine with another person, especially someone with a history of drug abuse or addiction. Using this medicine improperly can cause death or serious side effects on the heart. But anyway, it does not interfere with laboratory result of any of the tests which you have mentioned.
Thanks!!
