That is wrong advice. The drug screening is a simple test, but can detect all kinds of chemicals within your body. You should always take your prescripts to all dot testing so that they know what you are on.
Furthermore, your doctor needs to be aware that some medications that they may prescribe may disqualify you on a DOT physical. He needs to prescribe medication which will allow you to keep driving. :wink:
Now, I not sure about other places, but when I took mine just a month ago, I had a high glucose in my urine. The doctor stated that I need to see my own doctor about being diabetic before he would pass me. He put the physical on hold until that was done, because " if we continue, I'll have to fail you on the physical, and report it to DOT." So it may not be a company, but the clinic that reported it.
