Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

Piracetam and Aniracetam both are nootropic drugs of recetams group. These drugs are approved in a number of countries to use as cognitive enhancer drugs. These drugs are not drugs of abuse or controlled substances.

Commonly used Federal Drug Test usually detect narcotic substance and these two drugs would not show in your drug test. No need to worry unless they are specifically testing for piracetams which is not common.

So no need to worry.

Thanks, hope this helps you.
