In reply to Xanax - job drug testing, posted by meAgain on March 29, 2007, at 23:19:35
> Does .5mg of xanax show up in a drug test ..I gave my boyfriend 1 last night because he was having horrible anxiety and couldnt sleep..totally didnt think about the fact he had a drug test for a job the next day at 3:00pm...will this show up?<<
No.
The standard employment drug tests do not check for Benzo's, although there are tests that can detect them.
Here are the standard tests:
Marijuana (THC) 50 ng/ml
Cocaine (COC) 300 ng/ml
Amphetamine (AMP) 1000 ng/ml
Phencyclidine (PCP) 25 ng/ml
Morphine/Opiates (MOR) 300 ng/I know you meant well, but you really shouldnt supply anyone else with your meds.If his anxiety is that bad, perhaps he should see a Pdoc for a consult.
That way if he ever comes up positive on a test he can just refer it to his doctors Rx, end of matter and he wont have to tell the employer what he is seeing the doctor about.
