Pre Eployment Drug Screen

**D/FW** · 08-26-2023, 10:08 PM

I have been taking Epistane,will this show up on a regular employment drug screen,I have taken urine test before while on a regular cycle but with a pro hormone I wasnt sure if it would cause me to test positive.Im thinking no but but would like to know for sure.

They usually test for recreational drugs. So not likely.

Yeah, I’m in agreement with @P_Labs!! I randomly test my clients at my practice for illicit substance use. This process is almost always a 10, 12, or 14 panel test. To test for Epistane it would require specialized testing, and employer is likely never going to do that. It’s not cost effective…

Thank you both for chiming in on this,nothing like a piss test to make you squirm a little bit.

They should tell you upfront what it is they are testing for. I wouldn’t ask either haha. Generally it’s a 5 or 10 panel from my experience and like Raw said, illicit drugs. I would not worry.

I know that they will be testing for illicit drugs but wasnt sure if the Epistane would cause me to test positive.I wasnt expecting this job offer or I would have waited to start taking this hormone but I feel much better about it now.Thanks Scoobs!
