| Re: Worried Xyrem will appear in blood screening
Been there, done that.
One of the medications I take by prescription turns into Phenobarbital in the body, which shows up in a screening. I had to go through screening for the first time in my life just last year, and of course it showed up. I had told the people that did the screening that it would show up and that it was being taken as a legal prescription at the prescribed dose.
They asked to talk to my doctor. So I gave them his number. That was the end of it. When the screening came back, it showed that I had failed. There was also a note attached stating that I had provided all the necessary documentation to show that the failure was due to a legally prescribed medication taken at the prescribed dosage. Two days later I got an amended screening, which stated that I passed.
Dont stop taking your meds. Be honest about what meds you are taking, who prescribed them, and why. You risk a whole lot more by trying to dupe the screeners. Rather than be reactive about your medication, be proactive. Let them know before they find out. In my case, that actually helped.
