We take great pride in our commitment to legendary customer service, and we love helping our clients maintain safe and drug-free workplaces. On the other hand, prescription opioid medications provide much-needed relief for patients recovering from surgery or managing chronic pain. But is it legal to take legitimately prescribed opioids after their expiration date? And if you’re a job seeker, will it cause you to fail a drug test?
We do a lot of testing for the courts system. Many of the tests have to do with custody battles. Others are for prior drug offenses, and the judge has the defendants test regularly. If they continue to test negative the judge will allow them to stay on probation, whereas a positive test might lead to jailtime. Judges have come to know and trust us and regularly issue orders for these defendants to test at our clinic.
