So, monday night I did 80-100 mg of oxycodone. I take my piss test thursday late afternoon, I pass and do not test positive for opiates.
OK so here is the story:
I applied for a pharmacy technician job at wal-mart. Yes I don't like wal-mart either, but at $9.50 an hour, i'm happy to sell out. They had me do a pre-employment drug test, uring test. They said since I was working at the pharmacy, my test would take longer to process. I assumed they would test for specific prescription drugs like xanax, percocets, ritalin.
On the sheet they gave me for the drug test, it had a "Labone" and "eScreen" logo on it. I did a search and found out what they were. Both companies do drug screens and use SAMHSA detection levels.
Like I said, on monday night, I did 80-100 mg of oxycodone. I have no tolerence, it made me a bit sick the next day, nothing I couldnt handle though.
I find out on tuesday that I have to take the drug test on thursday. So I take my drug test on thursday late afternoon, get the results back a week later and pass.
Now, I figure that passed either because:
1) I got the opiates out in time of my system (Or to a level that is undetectable.)
2) They didn't check for opiates like some drug tests don't.
If I got the drug out of my system, I'm suprised because it was such a large quantity, but if I did, here is what I did:
-Drank heaps of water starting tuesday night until right before my drug test on thursday after noon
-Ate much less starting on tuesday night, only had a chewy bar on thursday
-Drank a red bull for breakfast thursday morning (Diuretic + B-vitamins + niacin might have helped)
I also am fairly fit, have a good metabolism. I also wonder if the legit daily doses of dexedrine I take contributed to ridding my body of the opiate (possibly because of sped of metabolism and/or diuretic.)
Now
this website says that the detection level for opiate metabolites is 2000 (ng/ml) which is supposed to detect oxycodone. Yet
this website says that the 2000 ng/ml sensitivity level of the standard opiate test would not detect Oxycodone.
If the above is true, it would suprise me that a pre-employment for a pharmacy job would either A) Use a test that does not use a high enough cut off level to detect oxycodone or B) Not bother to detect oxycodone at all.
Guess I'm just lucky whichever way . . . . . .
