   For the average person, it takes 72 hours from the last dose to clear out of urine. If you have a valid prescription, just take it with you and show it to the examiner so they can mark it on the test. I am assuming you don’t want them to know or you wouldn’t be asking though.

   You won’t be clean of Methadone if they test for that. If you have been taking it for days on end, it will take maybe a week or more for it to go away. I failed one of these tests.

   Could you lie and say you take it for pain relief, or would they contact the addiction clinic? MEthadone is perfectly good for fibromyalgia, which you very well may have if you seek out narcotics. I know i seeeked out narcotics for pain i had in my body, not just cuz I wanted to get high. Show them the prescriptions and explain it’s for chronic pain and they will havve nothing to say and not be able to deny your application unless there are many other better ones who are more qualiffied……………GOOD LUCK HUN! ..:(

   And even if you are addicted to methadone and need to be on it, I believe that is a disability and they cannot discriminate against you if you can do the work that needs to be done. I live in Canada an It’s a disability to be on methadone maintenance. Drug abuse is a disability which will get you 930$ a month here for rent and food etc, it’s still not enough to live but I have my family who make it better by getting me better food.

   You should just be honest and tell them what the methadone treatment is for, andthat you are able to do the jobs required and that it is a disability and you deserve a fair chance with someone who is not disabled.

   You will pee dirty most likely and they probably wont hire you unless you can talk up a storm to let them know why you re better than the other person(s) who are applying.
