    Yes- probably THC (pot), coke, meth, opiates, ecstasy, PCP, and barbiturates. Normal 7-panel drug screen. If you are taking something like vicoden or hydrocodone, it will test positive for opiates and you will need to inform them that you have a prescription. It won't be a problem as long as you aren't taking any of those things, or have a prescription for what you are taking.
