    False positive

    The other day i gave a false positive for amphetimine , could this be from the clenbuterol? or as?

    What kind of test was it, AAS or standard drug?

    Probably just a false reading. Even on a 10 panel they don't test for clen, and I think there is something specific they have to look for when checking, same with AAS.

    Clen shouldn't test positive on there.

    I've been tested before with clen in my system, and never had a problem.

    I wouldn't think so, since speed and clen work differently.

    UNlikely. Clenbuterol is a beta-agonist. Amphetamines in most cases cause the release of norepinephrine.

    Are you on any medication for ADHD/ADD or depression?

    Not weird at all. Clenbuteral is not a human drug, rather it never was manufactured for human use. (to any research or knowlege I have been privy too) It was used in the verterinarian field as an anabolic for livestock. Which all but a few drugs that use it or comound it have been banned in nthe UK and USA because of the effects the clenbuterol residues have on humans.

    However its original purpose was a bronchiodialotor (SP?) for livestock.

    Now its cousin drug, Albuterol, is used in humans as a bronchiodialotor for the treatment of asthma.

    So no, the fact that your doctor is not familiar with clenbuterol is not at all weird. Unless you get physicals at the Vet.
