I think you are all right for drug test, but Lyrica is a seiaure medicine used for nerve pain. It should not be used on an occasional basis. Does your doctor know how you are taking it? This could cause a seizure. Just my thought...

Even if it did show up, or in the future you are prescribed a narcotic and that shows up, you will be fine. If you just show your PO the prescription bottles they cant do anything bc you legally have them.

No Lyrica is neither a narcotic or an opiate.

Hey nikishalewis,

The Lyrica will not show up on a standard drug test and should not cause a false positive for anything.

Best wishes,

Laurie
