Does Xanax show up in a regular urine test? I have a prescription but I don’t want my new job knowing that I am on it.

Almost all drug tox screen panels test for benzodiazepines. All CDL, FAA, DOT and military panels definitely screen for them.
See what happens when you ask them what they specifically screen for. Be assured they will run a full spectrum screen on you after you ask for that little tidbit of info.
Use your brain man. Why take information on this website when you can Google and get information straight form companies who perform testing regarding levels of dectability, associated does, duration, etc.
Yes, there are limits of detection (LOD) but laboratories must adhere to a cut-off value (established by SAMHSA, DOT, FAA, the employer, etc.), which also has to be within their quality control limits. They might be able to detect down to 2 ng/mL of delta-9-THC in your urine, but the cut-off limit on the confirmation/quantitation is 15 ng/mL.
You cannot associate a dose with a level in urine.
Duration of action? I think you mean how long will a urine specimen test positive after ingestion of substance -- all depends on body type, metabolism, what kind of user you are, etc. They can give ballpark times, but nothing is guaranteed.
If you are on it - so what. You are far better off stating on the disclaimer than omitting it and testing positive.
I am pretty sure HIPAA got rid of anyone having to disclose up front what medications they are on BEFORE they are tested. If your screen is positive, the specimen goes for a confirmation test. If it is still positive, a Medical Review Officer (MD or DO) will contact you about any Rxs that you have, and proof of them. If you tested positive for Benzodiazepines, at that point, you would be providing proof that you indeed have an Rx for Xanax.
All the lab is going to report is yea or nay. Besides, they aren't going to do the screen before making a contingent offer.
Wrong. The lab will report a positive for the group, and the identity of drug and/or metabolites that are found in the urine during confirmation testing. They will know whether you are taking Xanax or Valium, butalbital or phenobarbital, etc.
Even if you test positive, your employer won't have to know at all because the MRO will contact the prescribing doc. She or he will verify and the result sent will be clean. No sweat.
It is a prescription pain med in Great Britain. Still Sched I here.Heroin is a pain medicine now? Ok.
Re: "what difference if they know it": Duh!
They will fire you, not hire you, tag you as a psycho, ruin your life, etc.! Almost all drug tox screen panels test for benzodiazepines. All CDL, FAA, DOT and military panels definitely screen for them.

What could be more of a violation of our fourth amendment rights than to have our bodily fluids searched without probable cause nor warrant!
May Thomas Jefferson never know and rest in peace.
