I have been on Effexor XR 300mg for at least 3 years now and it has never come up on any of my work related drug tests. I don't think they are looking for AD's anyhow, more along the line of Opiates, PCP, THC, etc. The illegal stuff. My rule of thumb is if they don't ask, I don't tell. I know I have a legit rx for everything I take. Besides, the lab would contact YOU if there was any question about your test results before they responded to your employer. It is my understanding that they can only say pos or neg and perhaps which drug. They can't get into specifics about legal substances providing you have a legit rx. Just my take on how it works...someone correct me if I am wrong. I get random tested for my job and even though it is random, my number seems to get pulled quite often. I don't sweat it.
