If you have a legal prescription for an amphetamine here you can't be prosecuted. Even positive urine tests associated with employment are OK if you are under a doctor's treatment and supervision and have a legal prescription for the controlled substance being tested. Is it illegal in Germany for a doctor to prescribe an amphetamine (i.e.), for ADD? Does the diagnosis of ADD even exist there? Just curious. Conversely, would testing positive for marijuana be cause for a traffic offense or dismissal from employment in Germany?
