Question about drug testing

Depending on how many mg per day you have been talking and for how long. They recommend weaning your body from them by .5mg per month. Stopping cold turkey can have some effects nobody wants.

I don't take them on a daily basis. Just as needed. In the last year, I've only refilled my prescription once. That's 60 pills at .25mg in a year. Not worried about withdraw symptoms.

Question about drug testing

Thank for the info Old School.

I don't want this to be a factor for whether or not I'm hired by a trucking company. I'll just stop using them. I'd rather go into this thing with a clean slate.

Question about drug testing

Hi, I've been considering a career in trucking. I do not do any illegal drugs. I do, however, take xanax occationally for anxiety (obviously not while operating a vehicle). It is prescribed by my doctor. I just want to find out if it is tested for in a drug test. My fear is that if I say I take xanax, it will set off red flags to potential employers, so if its not something that is tested for, I would prefer not to disclose this information.

Does anyone have any insite on this?
