CBD oil is NON psychoactive. I'd have plenty of documentation to attest to that fact, because it is a very important distinction.
Does it test positive in a drug screen? I presume it would be clarified as not THC during GC/MS confirmation testing? Sadly some facilities make decisions based upon the screening test (risks for false positives with many substances ) rather than wait for definitive answers from the confirmatory tests

Hi all,
I have read several threads addressing the use of medical marijuana use as a nurse, but there doesn't seem to be a topic of conversation regarding CBD oil use. So here it is. I am recently diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, it doesn't impair my career as much as it could and I would like to keep it that way (and keep my colon while I am at it!). I used CBD oil as a recommendation from a specialist but then realized that I could test positive in a UA. It worked great for me and has brought me close to having no symptoms at all! Can my use of CBD oil (which I have stopped since I was afraid of the UA) be terms of termination, even though it isn't a substance which is affecting my abilities as a nurse? Should I get a doctors note just to show that I am a legal user and that I am not using anything more potent?
Just as a refresher, CBD oil doesn't make you high or impair your judgment in any way, there is no THC present and it is legal in all 50 states as long as it is hemp oil based. Now there is CBD oil that is more potent, but still hemp oil based that you can get in select states with a medical marijuana card.
