I start trucking acdamey at swift feb 11th I take bipolar medication. Will it work against me

I don't know about that one in particular but just give a call to any doctor or hospital that gives DOT physicals and they'll let you know if it's ok or not. Also, before you show up at either a Company-Sponsored Training Program (if you're going that route) or orientation for your first job make sure they know about any medications you're currently taking. Some companies have specific policies against certain medicines or types of medicines so just make sure ahead of time that they know about it and it's ok.

Thanks bro. Do you know any drivers that are on antidepressants of anxiety meds?

I take it for anxiety I read its not a benzo like ativan ,or xantix so i think i should be ok if i get a doctors note. before I get my DOT done? anyone have any info to share

i got 3 weeks until i test..... how long should I study for each day?

I meant to write blood pressure meds..lol

I take 200 mg of Zoloft for anxiety /depression been taking for over 6 months. I also take 2 blood medications. propranolol and lisinopril. will this disqualify me from driving I heard it wouldn't they don't get me drowsy or anything. So what do I do when I get to the DOT part or better yet say?
