what kind of drug test?
 
What sort of drug test do most companies give their applicants?
Urine or hair?

I'm not a driver yet but my doctor had me on clorazepate,it's a real mild valium for a nervous stomach problem that I have.
I already quit taking it because I don't know how long that stuff stays in your system.I just don't want any problems trying to get a job somewhere and I will also save my prescription bottle to prove I wasn't taking it illegally.

If your doctor prescribed it and says it will not impare your ability to drive then you should be okay.

Just be 100% sure that you tell the testing facility at the time of your test and also take your prescription bottle with you.

Usually urine tests are administered.And being that you took a water soluble (pill),it will go undetected after 3-5 days on a urine analysis.
