    Does a job physical exam require a drug test
    I am getting a physical tomorrow for a job and a tb test they did not say any thing about a drug test. Are they going to do a drug test during the physical I took a blue xanax and a perc 15 last night if I drink water and go late in the afternoon tomorrow will it show up if they do give me a test? Do you think they will test me for drugs during the physical?

    What kind of job is it?

    Does it deal with public safety/health?

    Perhaps something involving equipment or decision making that could affect someone else's safety by making a wrong decision?

    If the answer is yes to any of these questions then yes,I would imagine that they would,and I personally hope they do.

    Taking prescription drugs,if not prescribed and taken as prescribed(which by your words,you didn't take them as such or you wouldn't be worried about passing a test for illegal usage)Because if they were prescribed for you and you took them as they were supposed to be taken,you would have no problem with justifying the use.

    Passing any test wouldn't be an issue.

    Perhaps you should stop the drug use while you are able to,perhaps you'll get that dream job instead of having to work for a fast food or take out restaurant where they don't test for things like this.
