Charlie,
I used to administer drug test and, I'm sorry, but the benzo's are one of the drugs they look for because they are one of the #1 abused prescription drugs. What we did was make a note of any legally prescribed drugs you are taking on the chain of custoday form. Take your prescription bottles with you as these constitute proof that they are yours and you were prescribed them by a physcian. However, they do clear your system pretty quickly has always been my understanding. Its marijuana that sticks around for along time.
Anway, just let them know you are taking it. And don't let it embarass you. Gazillions of people take meds of this nature. And don't eat poppy seed buns! They cause a false positive for opiates! (besides, they look awful in your teeth! lol)
Good luck!
Thanks for the 411, especially about the benzos.
