Is It Possible That Regimex Is The Cause Of Amphetamines And Methamphetamines Shown On Urine Test?

I was prescribed Regimex by my doctor for weight issues. I was injured on my job and took a urine test that came back positive for anphetamines and methanphetamine. I took my prescribed pill every morning at 9:00. I had the drug test at 12:30. The doctor that I went to for the urine test advised that my level was to high. I lost my job because the toxicologist that performed the test said that it could not be my medication. I have never taken illegal drugs in my life. Please I need help on what to do. I have found some information about regimex but nothing on the outcome of a urine test while taking it. Anything. Please help

hi
thanks for healthcare magic

14 different compounds are metabolized to methamphetamine or amphetamine or both. In ur case Regimex may have bee metabolized into methamphetamine or amphetamine. I said u have lost ur job due to this. In that case u should have talk to ur boss about the prescription of regimex by a doctor. for proof u can give him a reference of a study. http://www.amphetamines.org/benzphetamine/index.html
