HELP, HELP, HELP ! Pharmacoteraphy hair test

Posted by tex1 on May 2, 2003, at 8:07:38

Hy all. I'll be short. My therapy is valproic acid and clomipramine. I have to make a hair test for a job. Are these considered "drugs" ?

Thanks

Valproic acid and clomipramine are not tested for in pre-employment screenings, and even if they were... these drugs are not scheduled and you have a prescription, so it's fine.

& even if they were scheduled and/or controled
you have the legal right to take them, if you have a script.

The way it has worked for me is I was tested
and them they indicate if the test was dirty
or not. Then, and only them, do you produce the scripts and docs notes. The Lab them makes the
call as to pass/fail and reports to the employer
only this. So what you take is only known by the Lab, and they only know if they need too.

I suspect this is specific to state and Lab.
