(HELP!) Question - Amphetamines and Urinary PH level

[NyK_SyN]

Could somebody please explain to me how the urinary PH level works when discussing its effect on amphetamine? Would causing your urinary PH to go up (consuming acidic food/drink) cause the amphetamine to be excreted from the body quicker? As much as possible of an explanation and from as many avenues as willing would be greatly appreciated (how antacids and causing PH to become of a basic [base] nature)!!! Thanks!

Acids have a LOWER Ph than Bases
Acids < 7
Bases > 7

I think I remember reading your urine has a lower ph on amphetamine too... but I can't say for sure if that is accurate

I do believe consuming acidic food and drink will cause less of the amphetamine to be absorbed (or something along those lines) and it would cause amphetamine to be excreted faster because more is being passed through the urine?
But by no means is it at a rate of super-speed that it lowers the half-life by 50%

It's more like... if Methamphetamine's half life is 12 hours... maybe it will go down to 10-11 hours
