Question : I have been taking Tramadol for a few days. It has been 2 days since I took the last pill. I am going for a job interview. If they want a drug test will it show up as me being on drugs?

Brief Answer:
Yes, it will show up!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I have reviewed your information fully. If you were to go for a test anytime soon, you will certainly test positive for this. However, if you have a doctors’ prescription, there is no reason to get worried as it is justified. It usually takes 7-10days for this drug to become undetectable after last use.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
