Detection of Methadone, LAAM, and Their Metabolites by Methadone Immunoassays [PDF]
Journal of Analytical Toxicology, 1999 l-Alpha-acetylmethadol (LAAM) was recently approved as a substitute for methadone. LAAM, methadone, and their common metabolite, methadol, are extensively N-demethylated. The structural similarities of LAAM and its metabolites to methadone suggest that they may cross-react in methadone immunoassays.
