Brief Answer:
yes meth will show up, you should have prescription

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

Thanks for writing to us.

Adderall will show up in test as amphetamine (meth).
However if you have valid prescription of adderall you of course can show and claim that it is due to adderall.

Same thing would apply to xanax. It will show up as benzodiazepine and you should have prescription for that.

Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.
Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
