Amphetamine (amphetamine and methamphetamine) is one of the SAMHSA-5, the five drugs tested for in U.S. government-approved basic drug tests. Amphetamines are standardly detectable in urine for 1-3 days after use. Methamphetamines stay in the system slightly longer, 3-5 days. The Amphetamine test is a one step competitive immunoassay that is used to screen for the presence of amphetamine in urine.
