Standard pre-employment drug screenings do not test for beta-blockers like propranolol (the generic name for Inderal LA). These tests are designed to look for specific recreational drugs or controlled substances, not routine cardiovascular medications. However, during your physical exam, the doctor will check your blood pressure and heart rate, which may be lower due to the medication. I highly recommend being open and listing Inderal LA on your medical questionnaire. Employers respect honesty, and taking a prescribed medication to manage your health will not disqualify you.

Will my pre-employment medical exam detect that I am taking the blood pressure medication Inderal LA 20?
