For those with medicated adhd meds , can you drive do you need a drs letter ? Facing driving lessons soon and it just occurred to me these are heavy meds that would come up bad in a drug test .

It was suggested to me to have a copy/photo of the script on me just in case there was ever any issue

I know a man who has been drug tested and he has to give proof he was on prescription medication for ADHD.

This has never come up as an issue for any of the medicated adhd adults in my life. I guess if it came up in a drug test, a quick call to the pharmacy or doctor can confirm the script. Any more hassle would be considered discrimination for disability. If anything it is more dangerous to drive without meds!
Good luck w your driving lessons!

I suppose it really depends on the specific type of medication!

How was everyone with learning to drive? Was it better for a school over parent? Did it take longer?
