Does Taking Adipex Show Up As Meth In Drug Test?

Hello, I took some diet pills ( Adipex) last week. Then went on a drug screen for a new job. I then received a phone from the a Representative informing a do meth . Which i have NEVER been involved or interested in! As I advised the Rep, I have only seen it on TV & pictures. During the companies, orientation under mAMP section (on their section Drug Screen Breakdown ) it included Diet pills. So could someone PLEASE educate me how this is possible? I have been reading a lot of conflicting readings. Thank you, Respectfully.
