Analyzing Britney's Urine -- It's Not Provigil

There are reports circulating that Britney's positive drug test last week was the result of Provigil, a prescription for treatment of narcolepsy. Well, we're told it ain't so.

In generic drug testing -- the type performed on Britney -- there is not a special screening for Provigil.

In addition, we know the tests actually performed on Spears (until last week) all came back negative, and she had been taking Provigil before that. The plot thickens.

Celebrity Justice, Britney Spears

Provigil is not legal speed and is used for a host of label medical and psychiatric problems including depression and ADD. I think with all of the pressure in her life we can all say that she may be experiencing some emotional problems that may require her to take drugs like these. As far as her drug test, there are many over the counter as well as prescription drugs that can cause a false positive for amphetamines so lets not be so quick to judge Britney!

Actually Provigil is also commonly used to treat depression, FYI.

What have I told you people? Are you ignorant or what? Britney isn't on any drugs. People need to leave this icon alone and let her live her life.

You are all pathetic. Especially the pap's.
