THe other night I ran out of my Ambien. In my travel bag I found an old script for Restoril, so I took one. It didnt help of course, this is no comparison to Ambien.

2 days later I had a dr appt and had the usual drug screen for pain mgmt patients. Is this going to show up as a benzo?

I have a script but its old and from a different dr I saw a year ago. Geez, I didnt even think about it before I took it!

I hope there isnt going to be a problem

Restoril is a benzodiazepine, so yes. If the blood test was 2 days later, there are still trace amounts in the blood, though how sensitive their testing is I can't say.

It was a urine screen, not blood. I have a script to back it up from my previous rheumy. I dont even use the ******************** that is what makes me angry, I just ran out of my Ambien and grabbed one not thinking.
