I have been on subutex for over a year and have not taken opiates in that time. I have a really good job and they are now doing a drug test today urine / hair sample test I am the sole provider for my family and do not want to lose my job. I need help on how to pass my test. I take between 4mg and 6 mg a day, I am working on getting off the subutex but at this point I have no choice bc the withdraws will be terrible and I work 12 hr shifts 60 hrs a week... please help!

Your job can't fire you for being an addict. It's discrimination if they do. Often, the lab will call & give you a chance to explain any positive results, and with good explanation they will relay to your employer that you're not positive. Even if they did, you have a legit reason & they can't do anything about it. Addiction is a mental illness and just like other illnesses,we didn't ask for it. Therefore, you can't lose your job over it. Good luck but don't worry.
