- Check off any categories that apply, even if you are not sure they matter.
- Select “Print my checklist” and bring the page to your test, or show it to your monitoring coordinator.
- Update it whenever you start, stop or change a medicine.

My list
Nothing added yet.
Do not stop or change a prescribed medicine to prepare for a test. Talk with your prescriber first. Telling us what you take helps us read your result fairly. Any positive screen can be sent to a partner laboratory for confirmation.
Why disclosure matters
An instant test is a screen. NIDA explains that drug testing works in two steps, a screen and then a confirmation, and that a result should not be the only basis for decisions about care (NIDA). Knowing what you take helps your coordinator read a result fairly, and any positive screen can be sent to a partner laboratory for confirmation. Read screening vs confirmation or what to tell us about prescriptions.
Everyday products and alcohol tests
Mayo Clinic Laboratories notes that incidental exposure from products like hand sanitizer and mouthwash can produce detectable EtG, the marker used in EtG alcohol tests (Mayo Clinic Laboratories). List these too.
Never stop a prescribed medicine for a test
Do not stop or change a prescribed medicine to prepare for a test. Talk with your prescriber first. If you need help with medication questions, Blackburn Clinical Services offers therapy and psychiatric care, and your monitoring coordinator can make the introduction.
Common questions
Can a medicine I take as prescribed show up on a drug screen?
It can. That is why we ask for your list before you test. Instant screens are a first step, and any positive screen can be sent to a partner laboratory for confirmation.
Does this checklist save my information?
No. The list lives only in your browser tab while the page is open. Nothing is stored or sent. What you later share with us is shared only with people you authorize in writing.
Can mouthwash or hand sanitizer affect an alcohol test?
They can affect an EtG test. Mayo Clinic Laboratories notes that incidental exposure from these products can produce detectable EtG, so list any you use.
What if I start a new medicine while I am being monitored?
Tell your monitoring coordinator before your next test and add it to your checklist. Keeping your list current helps us read every result fairly.
