Amphetamines 1000

Amphetamines are central nervous system stimulants that produce alertness, wakefulness, increased energy, reduced hunger, and overall feeling of well-being. They are chemically related to the human body’s natural catecholamines: epinephrine and norepinephrine. Large doses and extended usage can result in higher tolerance levels and physiological dependency leading to substance abuse. The effect of Amphetamines generally last 2-4 hours following use, and the drug has a half-life of 4-24 hours in the body. About 30% of Amphetamines are excreted in the urine in unchanged form, with the remainder as hydroxylated and deaminated derivatives. Drug Tests yield a positive result when Amphetamines in urine exceed 1000 ng/mL, which is the suggested screening cut-off for positive specimens by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA, USA). Also see our available cut-off levels of 300 or 500 ng/ml.
