I am facing mandatory drug testing at my job. They claim no action will be taken against me because they are prescribed meds. I fear this would give them a reason to fire me for some other reason.

It is true that they cannot take action against legally prescribed medications.

However, it seems you are worrying needlessly. Under right to work, an employed can fire any employee, at any time, for any reason or for no reason. Therefore, if they really want to get rid of someone, they will do and there is nothing that can be done about it.

But, if you refuse the test, you are definitely giving them grounds.
