What happens if another substance is found in my drug screen?

Finding another substance in your results will not stop your treatment. QuickMD will continue prescribing your medication even if your screen tests positive for other substances.

The drug screen is a state compliance requirement — not a test of whether you're doing recovery "correctly." There is no judgment attached to the results.

What does put your care at risk: Not submitting the screen at all may prevent us from prescribing due to state regulations. The results themselves are not what creates risk — it's whether the screen was completed.

If you're concerned about a result or want to discuss it, talk to your clinician at your next visit. These conversations are confidential and part of your care.
