    What medications disqualify a CMV driver?
    Answer:
    A driver cannot take a controlled substance or prescription medication without a prescription from a licensed practitioner.
    If a driver uses a drug identified in 21 CFR 1308.11 (391.42(b)(12)) or any other substance such as amphetamine, a narcotic, or any other habit forming drug, The driver is medically unqualified.

    There is an exception: the prescribing doctor can write that the driver is safe to be a commercial driver while taking the medication. In this case, the Medical Examiner may, but does not have to certify the driver.

    Any anti-seizure medication used for the prevention of seizures is disqualifying.

    The Medical Examiner has 2 ways to determine if any medication a driver uses will adversely affect safe operation of a CMV:

    Review each medication - prescription, non-prescription and supplement
    Request a letter from the prescribing doctor
