The routine FAA medical examination does not test for alcohol use and it does not include a blood test. The urine test, which is performed by Aviation Medical Examiner's, is a screening test for diabetes and kidney disease and normally does not include a drug test.

Professional pilots are typically required to submit to regular drug testing. Pilots which test positive for illegal drugs, and those reporting their use of a disqualifying drug or medication, must be evaluated to establish eligibility for FAA medical certification.
