Default Suboxone and Dexmethylphenidate :-(

Hi guys i have searched for the answer to my question on this forum and was unlucky. I am concerned and thought maybe someone here could answer my question. Here it goes. I have been taking Suboxone and Dexmethylphenidate(focalin) for personal reasons. I was prescribed these 2 before I was in the military and 4 years later here I am taking it again but this time it isnt under my perscrption. So I just got home from a vacation out of the military ya know kinda celebrating that IM FREE lol anyways and time to buckle down.. So I got a job offer at Books a Million for the time being and understand there will be a pre screening drug test for me to work there. Anyways to make this all short.. Will these 2 drugs show up on a drug test that they are giving me?? The SAMHSA-5 is what companies give I beleive. Please someone let me know. Thanks for the help in advance

Am I correct in assuming that you are planning to continue taking the medications throughout the time when you are tested? You're just wanting to know your odds of being successful?

I would need to know what kind of doses you are on with the focalin and suboxone. Focalin could show up as amphetamine depending on the amount you are taking. Suboxone is not likely to show up on a five panel test as you describe. It's an opiate but requires a more advanced test than a five panel test.
