Re: Blood Test

Whether you're taking a blood test or

breathelizer test for the presence of alcohol or other drugs, you should inform the examiner as to your intake of Zoloft and Ambien and in what dosages and frequency. These drugs taken as prescribed should not in any way contribute to you're being accused of or adjudged guilty of DUI as a result of any test performed upon your person.
