Drug Test and LSD
    #23938661 - 12/18/16 04:51 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)

For the past five years I was a 5-times-a-day pot smoker. It was nice while it lasted, but back in October I decided to quit cold turkey. I haven't smoked at all since then (76 days ago). I can't even believe that it's been that long. The longest that I've gone without pot prior to this was 31 days. It's crazy looking back on it now.

Anyways, I just got hired on with a company that does a "routine drug screening" prior to employment.

First, can I get a confirmation that I have absolutely nothing to worry about with the marijuana smoking in my past? I don't think that the test will be until mid-January, and by then I'll be 100+ days without pot. So in theory I should even be able to pass a hair test at that point, although I think that they are just doing a piss test. (The job is as a tour vehicle driver).

My main concern is LSD though. I eat acid a lot... maybe once every week or two. Also, I microdose LSD every other day.

Question 1: Do I need to worry about this at all?
Question 2: Do I need to not drop acid for a week before the drug screening or can I just not worry?
Question 3: Do I need to discontinue my microdosing in the week before the drug test?

Thanks crew!

LSD will never come up on any drug test. The drug's minuscule active dosage and how rapidly it becomes metabolized by the body makes it difficult and impractical to test for.

I have seen lots of drug test results in my life and I have never ever once seen LSD or psilocybin appear on any of those results.  Even the ones from that lab that can also test for RC's.  The only drug that I've ever seen come up in the psychedelic category is ketamine.  The shroomerite who posted above me was spot on.  Unless you go in tripping balls, they're not going to be able to find it.

That was my understanding up until this evening when I went out and did some online research. It seems that there are tests for LSD out there, but they only seem to be used if the employer has reason to suspect the use of LSD. I understand that the test is very expensive and that when the US military used to screen for LSD they only found something like 3 positive tests out of 4 million screens, or something along those lines. So I guess I'm safe in that regard, but I just wanted some confirmation.

---

Here's my next concern though, and this only occurred to me after my first post.

I have a prescription for Xanax. I don't take it all that often, maybe twice a week I'll take a half milligram to get to sleep, and once every six months or so I'll take it for a panic attack. BUT the job that I'm getting is as a vehicle driver. Does this mean that I'm fucked? Do I need to stop taking the Xanax immediately (I don't think I'm going to be tested for a few weeks still)? Will they check my records and see that I have had a Xanax prescription and not hire me just based on that past history? What's the advice there.

I will note that in the hiring process they said that if I have a medical marijuana card (I live in an MMJ state) that I cannot even be considered for employment. Luckily, although I've had an MMJ card for the past four years, I let it expire this past February, and I think that all they care about is active cards. Will the same thing apply to my Xanax prescription?

Do you have a legit, valid script for that xanax that's less than a year old?  If I remember correctly, xanax shouldn't show up in your urine after about 4 days, but if you have a legit script, there shouldn't be a problem.

My friend has a script for xanax and she had to take a drug test for a job.  She called me freaking out and sobbing.  I told her she had nothing to worry about because she had a script and she needed to take the bottle with her when she got there.  She told me they never asked her anything, she told them about being on xanax, and they told her their procedure.  You have to fail the test and then they'll ask if you have a prescription from a doctor.

TL;DR - If you're worried and you have a legit script, bring the bottle with you and mention it to the nurse to at least show you're not trying to hide anything.  If you don't have a legit script, you should be okay in about 4 days.

By the way, I also know that military drug test you're talking about, but you're certainly not going to get that test for a job...unless you're maybe driving for the military.

No, the driving job is not for the military. It's for a tour company.

Yes, I do have a 100% legit script from within the last two months.

My concern is that I've done a little bit of research online and everything you said is in line with what the Internet has said, but a few sources have said that if it's a passenger driving job (which this is) then I might be disqualified even if I do have a prescription. I don't want to call the company and be like, "So, that drug test--what kind of drugs are you screening for" or tell them that I have a Xanax prescription because that might automatically disqualify me. I am going to call my doctor tomorrow and ask about it.

If it's an 8 panel or 12 panel you're probably getting tested for it, but I don't know much about company rules and passenger vehicles.  If you're able to, I guess you can always wait the 4 days or so.  I don't believe that they're allowed to get your medical records if you're worried about them finding out about your xanax script another way.

That's my understanding as well--that the ADA prevents employers from having access to employee prescription records. I guess I'm just worried about testing positive at this point. I have read online that Benzos can stay in your system for 1-6 weeks, but my roommate (who used to work in a piss lab) says that it's more like one week. He also said that since I have a pretty low body fat content that I shouldn't need to worry too much. Additionally, he said that I can take some detox teas in the week leading up to the test. Unfortunately, I don't know 100% when the test will be. The company only told me that I'm hired pending a background test and drug screening and that the training starts in mid January. I assume that they'll test during the training since I don't actually live in the same town as where I'll be working (I'll be moving to the new town in January).

I've learned that the screening
that I'll have to take is a DOT drug screening. Anyone have any idea how many panel that will be or does it depend state by state?

EDIT: I think that it's a 5 panel drug screening. So I should be clear.

As per Google: "DOT drug tests require laboratory testing (49 CFR Part 40 Subpart F) for the following five classes of drugs:
Marijuana.
Cocaine.
Opiates – opium and codeine derivatives.
Amphetamines and methamphetamines.
Phencyclidine – PCP."

Also, I found that even a 20 panel drug test does not look for LSD. So I think that my anxiety has been alleviated. Maybe somewhat ironic that I was getting anxiety over this, and anxiety is why I take Xanax in the first place... or at least that's why I'm prescribed.

Nope, no worries or LSD, or cubes at all.

An employer would never waste their money on an expensive LSD drug test. If you were to ever get one of those it would be from the cops and it would have to be after you already got caught with LSD. Even then it would be unlikely.

No worries man, LSD is like a ninja...
It vanish from your system after it has done the job.

Update:

So I went in today to take my drug test after deciding that I'm 95% sure that it'll be a 5 panel, in which case the Benzos won't be a problem. When I arrived however, they told me that the test is 12 panel, so Benzos WILL be on the test. I panicked a little bit, but it's been 11 days since I had any. I just traveled out of state via flight, and whenever I fly I take them to get through the day. I took 1.5mg on the way there, but just to be safe, yesterday on the way back, I didn't take any.

So it's been 11 days since I had any, and I took my piss test this morning.

I'm hoping that they don't show up, but just to be safe, I went to my doctor and asked that she write me a letter saying that I'm prescribed and that it won't interfere with my work. I'm a little bit worried, because my company said that if I test positive for anything on the test that I won't be considered for employment. They didn't say anything about it mattering if I have a prescription.

It is a driving job, so I'm scared to tell them even that I have a prescription.

I'm headed out of cell service for the next 5 days starting tomorrow, but when I get back I should have my test results from my employer. I'll post at that time and give an update.

Keep your fingers crossed for me...

You should be fine. It really matters what benzos you took. I have taken 1MG-2MG xanax a couple days beore a drug test and I was fine. But that was xans, those are in and out as fast as you can get.

For my piece of mind, I ordered about a dozen at home single dip stick tests, they are real cheap like 1$, but if you don't have a week or so in advance to get them then its not a way to clear your mind.

Yes. It was Xanax. Took 1.5 mg 11 days before the test. Didn't know I'd be tested for them until I arrived this morning. But everything I've read says that they should be out of my system in 4 days, give or take.
