I live in Virginia and I recently took a urine drug test my psychiatrist wanted because he was prescribing Valium. Came back that I had a different Benzodiazepine in my system that I have never been prescribed or ever taken. I do not use any illegal drugs or anything not prescribed to me. I searched for possible false positives in other medications that I'm taking but didn't find any. He said I will have to take a second random drug test in the near future. Can I refuse the second test? What's the consequences of saying NO?

Presumably you won't get Valium. This is all part of your medical treatment, so its covered by medical confidentiality.

I was told one more failed drug test and no other doctor would prescribe any controlled drugs cause this info is shared through the drug monitoring program.– BigBub82Dec 22, 2019 at 15:37
