Here are the basic cheapy tests that most employers use. Cities aren't made of money for the most part so I don't think you should be unduly concerned, but who knows?

The basic drug test used by most corporate drug testing programs is called a "Five-Screen" (or "NIDA-5" or "SAMHSA-5") which is testing for five types of drugs:

1. Cannabinoids (Marijuana, Hashish)
2. Cocaine (Cocaine, Crack, Benzoylecognine)
3. Opiates (Heroin, Opium, Codeine, Morphine)
4. Amphetamines (Amphetamines, Methamphetamines, Speed)
5 .Phencyclidine (PCP, Angel Dust)

However, many drug testing firms now offer a "Ten-Screen" which expands to include five additional drugs:

6. Barbituates (Phenobarbital, Secobarbitol, Pentobarbital, Butalbital, Amobarbital)
Methaqualone (Qualuudes)
7.. Benzodiazepines (Tranquilizers--Diazepam, Valium, Librium, Ativan, Xanax, 8.Clonopin, Serax, Halcion, Rohypnol)
9.Methadone
10.Propoxyphene (Darvon compounds)

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
