Well I can’t speak for everyone else, but the point I was originally trying to make is, if a guy is in such pain and has such high anxiety that he needs to medicate to this extent, then driving a big heavy truck is not a good career choice. Like I said, he will be miserable out there with the irregular schedule and all the other shenanigans that come with the job. If the drugs help him feel better, great, but I can’t believe that he will be able to properly function, let alone get hired by anyone, if he is dependent on all these meds. Of course I’m no pharmacist, I’m just guessing.
Can these 4 drugs disqualify you from CDL?

You are missing the whole point, CDL driver in a truck you might as well have a bullseye pained on your forehead, dont do anything that could even appear to maybe be almost wrong.

Here is a story that is sort of famous here on TTR... years ago, we had a regular member here who was in a hotel because his company truck was in a shop for repairs. While at the hotel, he got hammered at the hotel bar and posted all about it on this forum. His company was made aware of it, and he was fired. He did nothing illegal, he wasn’t working, wasn’t even in the truck, but he was still “on the job” and responsible for the truck. At least according to his company policy anyway.
So yeah, I believe the same logic should apply with prescription drugs.bryan21384 and Rahat Thank this. -
I had just gotten off Imogene Pass in CO and my tire blew up. Spent the night in my Jeep along the highway, with Seroquel

Legally prescribed medication can still lead to DUI, any substance that can impare your ability to drive can lead to trouble.
