Does Having Duromine Cause False Positive Drug Test?
I am on duramine for the last two weeks. I drive professionally for work and have a letter from my doctor giving me authorisation to drive. Work has stood me down pending an investigation as to my ability to carry out my duties. And I will be having a medical evaluation tommow morning with a drug test.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The screening test --dipstick--has significant false positives. But routinely, it is retested with a much better test (MASS SPECTROSCOPY) that does not have false positives for duromine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Matt Wachsman
