Abstract :
Work as a truck driver can bring drivers to risks or problems that can
occur at any time on the way. In addition to pressure and risk in the form of acts
of extortion and thuggery, other pressure can also come from the employer or
skipper of the truck driver himself. As a result of the risks and pressures that are
often experienced trigger them to consume doping. Doping has both positive and
negative effects. The positive effect of doping is what drives truck drivers to
consume it. This class of stimulants consumed includes amphetamine.
Amphetamine is one of the dangerous chemicals that can cause addiction, but
amphetamine is also used for treatment. This study aims to identify amphetamine
in the urine of truck drivers Pt. Turrima Agro Mas who consumes doping.
