I am legally prescribed roxycodone. I possibly have a new job that will drug test me. How will this affect me.

The good testing companies will use an MRO to determine if what the nurse is taking is legal or not. If the sample in the drug test comes back non-negative it should be shipped to a lab where the MRO gets involved. The MRO then calls the nurse to ask if they are on any prescriptions. If they are the MRO then verifies that with the doctor. Employers do not want to lose good people because they are legally on a prescribed drug. Especially nurses because they are in short supply as it is. Terry Any reputable drug testing company will not say a nurse is using if they are on a prescribed med from a doctor.

Whether drugs are used for recreational or medicinal, you are using drugs!! I would not want to hire someone who i asked to be straight forward from the beginning and it turned out that they lied! Lying during an interview show so much dishonesty and if I were the employer I would not want to hire an individual who was asked to speak of the truth! Maybe the company should have asked the individual to attend a drug rehab center, become sober and then re-interview. This way he or she has an equal opportunity to the Job.
