Can I Be Fired For Using Phen? Is It Legal?

schortstuff · 03-23-2005, 04:23 AM

I am applying for jobs and like my school they do drug tests. Will it show up?
I fit does, is it illegal if I bought it off the net like 3 years ago but it has a
doctor's name on it and my name?

I can't be held responsible for this advice, but I asked around and it
seems that you have nothing to worry about.

As long as you had a valid prescription with a licensed doctor's name
and your name on it, you should be fine.

Let me know how it goes, as well as the job applications.
You mentioned school... Are you in college? (just curious)
I hope to start college in a couple years if I manage to scrape
together an income, lol.'

Good luck!

sorry to thread jack but I was just wondering if phen is 3 years old is it still good?

What's the expiration date?

If it's passed that date, I wouldn't take it. You're definitely not supposed to,
and there's a good chance that the composition of the pills has changed
a bit over time.

That is kind of what I was thinking. Surely the script wouldnt have an expiration of 3 years would it? I would be afraid to use it.

Many people are able to get prescriptions for it (like me). So I do not think it is something that you can get fired for taking.

However, if it shows up on a drug test, you might have to provide them with a legitimate reason you are taking it, including a current and valid scrip!

That what I thought--as long as you had a legal script you should be ok. I would think it best just to tell them up front before the testing just to let them know you arent trying to hide anything.
