Elevated Testing and Prescription Medications. Drug testing levels are applicable to all testing situations, except for those where an employee has been taking legally prescribed medications/narcotics and conforming to the prescribed dosage regimen. Any employee who tests above the NIDA established levels in these substance groups as a result of a legally prescribed medication/narcotic shall not be considered to have tested positive under this policy if the level reflects the dosage regimen. However, where the level is above the NIDA level and inconsistent with the dosage schedule, the employee shall be subject to discipline as a positive test.
