Why are people asking questions like..."how long will Xanax show up on a drug test "? A patient has the legal right to take a prescribed med. As i take Dexedrine I posed this question to my lawyer.....he said: 1) get a note on doc letterhead stating you take x (x's) med(s) while under his care...no reason to mention why you do or what condition 2) bring the bottle 3) present all of this at the time of testing...generally you are asked what meds you are on....list them all and document all the scheduled ones with the doc's note and current med bottles.
Some may be asking this question because they don't have a prescription (illicit) so I can't help you there ! If for some reason you don't want to test for a med....consult your doc, the pharmacy, and best the manufacture for wash out times. If you are going this route and the job is important I would pre test yourself to make sure. If you test positive on a employment drug test and have not mentioned prescribed meds it is very hard to prove these are legit after the fact.
