I am on felony probation in Virginia and I just started seeing a new psychiatrist via telehealth. She is prescribing me mental health medications, including Vyvanse and Klonopin. I know both are controlled substances.Will I be okay taking these while on probation, and what exactly should I do? It really has me worried since I know my next drug screen will test dirty for amphetamines (from the Vyvanse) and benzodiazepines (from the Klonopin).Any advice would really help ease my mind.
i guess i'm really just wondering if legally i'm ok and they can't like violate me and throw me in jail?
Thanks.

Ask your probation officer if it's ok. If your probation officer says no, consult your defense attorney about asking the judge for permission.
well my dr has already started me on it. i'm just trying to work on my mental health so it would have been hard to tell the dr wait let me check with my probation officer first ya know?
