A member asked:

I have a hair folical test for children services today and i have took adderal everyday except the last 4 weeks will it show up?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely yes: Hair grows out at about 1/2 inch/mo and any that was present during times of exposure would likely show positive. Once in it does not leave unless you cut it off.
