Should not be an issue if you list it as one of your meds and take your prescription bottle with you. They may even xerox it.

You will have to also disclose that you are a ""makeup addict""!!!

Taking this medication should not have any impact on being hired for the job. The drug will show up in your system. My experience has been that you will be given a chance to disclose, and that is when you show proof of a valid prescription.

Positive drug testing for tramadol

If you have a prescription for Tramadol, it shouldn’t be a problem if it shows up on a drug test. If you test positive to Tramadol and you have a prescription for the drug, it should be easy enough to explain to employers, doctors, and anyone else who might request a drug test. However, in several states Tramadol is considered a controlled substance, so if you’re using it without a prescription, you may get into some legal trouble.

If you test positive and you’re using Tramadol illegally, there will likely be repercussions. The exact legal status of Tramadol depends on where you live, so if you’re concerned about it showing up on a drug test, find out what your local laws are.

I am subject to drug screening and they will ask you to list what you're taking before you tinkle. Both OTC and prescribed meds.

As long as you have a valid prescription (and they will check with your pharmacy) you should be fine. We are not required to bring the bottle with us.
