Arizona’s drunk driving laws in the country are strict, but many people are shocked to find out that they can be charged for driving under the influence of a prescription medication, including Xanax, Percocet, oxycodone, Adderall, and others. Under Arizona’s Driving Under the Influence DUI law, you may be charged in one of two ways for driving under the influence of a prescription drug:

  • By driving while having any controlled drug or its metabolite in your system. This includes most painkillers, anxiety medications, and even medications for depression. It is a defense to this DUI charge that you have a prescription for the controlled drug that was found in your blood. However, you can still be charged in another way,
  • By driving while having any controlled drug or its metabolite in your system and being impaired to the slightest degree. This means that an arresting officer has made a decision that you were impaired at all, even if negligibly, and decided to arrest you.
