It’s illegal, that’s all it is I believe.

It's not, although rules vary by state. Medical professionals can prescribe it even though it's a Schedule III drug. I get ads for these presumably legitimate therapy services online all the time on major social networks.

should Netflix fire all women on maternity leave, since they most likely were administered fentanyl during delivery ?

why isn't Netflix firing anyone who had even a minor surgery or even tooth extraction done, since it most likely involved opioids

Medical professionals can also use fentanyl among other drugs that aren't legal for recreational use.

We carry ketamine on our ambulance where I work part-time. I wouldn't be surprised if some people were legally receiving drug therapy for depression

Firing someone for taking a prescribed therapeutic medication for a medical condition? Yeah, that’s illegal.

What if no medication history and perfect health was a precondition of that position, with equivalent disability position with the same task except to those with heavy disability offered separately in the same entity?

Is this an actual situation or a weird hypothetical?

Perfect health is only really a requirement for the military, pilots, and a couple other niche roles. No medication history would constitute illegal discrimination for 99% of jobs in the US, and the company even asking for it on hiring would lead to a HIPPA mess.

Nobody in America requires no medication history for office jobs, not even the CIA.

It's not illegal if it's through a licensed channel.

I think that’s the key, if it was prescribed to him by a doctor then probably not an issue. If it was just one of those don’t ask don’t tell therapy retreats then they may have a problem.
