I started taking serax for withdrawal symptoms from oxycodone. i take 4 per day-15 mg each. i am very worried that this may show up on a drug test on wednesday. i took my last dose at 6 pm last night. will i be ok?

The only way: to do this is to bring the SERAX bottle/with clearly written label/(Prescribing M.D or if possible the Prescription itself and give to the collector PRIOR to providing the test! It is much HARDER to explain a POSITIVE test AFTER the result is reported! Hope this helps you! Dr Z

Yes: if it shows up as Benzodiazepam, you can inform them that is a prescribed medication. You could also get a note from your doctor stating that your receiving a Benzodiazepam. My concern is that you may need a real treatment for your opiod addiction. Only longterm effective therapy are with Methadone or Buprenorphine or Vivitriol with counseling
