@A MyChronicPainTeam Member In Indiana they test for all illegal drugs and your take iz on the list but if you have script you should be exempt..Go for it, what will it hurt. Good luck
Pain meds and Xanax are not what they are testing for. The drug tests are for illegal drugs. They also ask you for a list of medications so what is prescribed by a Dr doesn't matter. What they are more interested in is things like cocaine and marijuana. With marijuana, you are ok if you have a marijuana card and live in a state that's legal but not if you don't.
I told human resources upfront that I was taking pain medicine and they told me to tell the agency where I was going to be tested. It was not a problem. I would just tell whoever is testing you. Good luck. God Bless.
I work and have had tests through emp!oyer. I am on several meds for condition, Letter from prescribing drs. Will be needed. Concern over ability to do job ? You are taking legal meds. Not street drugs. God bless & Good luck.👍🆒😎🆗
They test for..
Marijuana
Opiates
Benzoates
Any illegal drugs like Meth and Heroin
Most places will hire if you have legitimate scripts and a letter from your doctor. They may tell you up front that you will not be able to get full coverage insurance due to previous ailments.
Just be honest and it will work out just like it should..God bless
