Need An Answer About A Failed Drug Test

I went for a job interview and they hired me upon the completion of a drug test. It was a urine test and I failed and the only thing it could be is a diet pill I am taking (Adipex) or phentermine 37.5...I did not take one the day of the test but they said I failed and it went out for testing this was Friday and I have not heard back all day today..3 days later..I am worried as this job I need. I have a prescription from the doctor and they did copy it..do you think i will be ok?

Well, not taking one the day of the test wouldn't help, because you'd been taking it for awhile and since Phentermine is an Amphetamine class medication, it would still show up in your urine for as long as 5 days, afterwards.

However, if you have a prescription for it, they can't use it as a reason to not hire you.

The problem, however, could be that Phentermine can also cause a false positive for Ecstasy.

There are also some over the counter items that can cause false positives for other substances.

Have you heard anything, yet?
