Title: Xanax & Drug Tests
Post by: drugpanda on January 04, 2013, 09:30 am
Will a 1mg Xanax taken 3 days prior cause someone to fail a pre-employment drug screen (US) ?

I highly doubt it, but it would depend on how often the person was taking that xanax before. It it was the first time the person ever took xanax and they only took 1 mg, then they will most definitely be fine. If the person took xanax regularly and then stopped for 3 days then that would probably be on the line between safe and fucked.

Xanax can be detected in a urine screen up to 7 days. It all depends on your frequency of use, if you've been popping 1mg of Xanax everyday for the last 7 days you're probably fucked. If you've used xanax once or twice in the last 7 days you are most likely fine :)

Well said, david. +1 for that. I think it's funny that we basically said the same thing  ;D
I didn't know about the 7 days thing though, good to know.
