Default FAA and random drug testing of foreign carrie

Hi all,

I am extremely worried, stupidly at fiesta recently after have a few too many beers I smoked a join with some people at the party. I would never or have never done this before but as i was drunk the little I made this mistake. I am an FO for a arge airline and I regularly fly to the united states I have never been randomly tested before by the FAA but am I wondering does the FAA conduct random drug tests on pilots incoming from foreign carriers? my airline very not a lot to random tests, but I think I will speak to my fleet chief and tell him what happenned as i am so worried, can anyone working for a foriegn carrier that flies inbound to the US share their experiences as wherther or not this thing happens and how often.

I apologise to professional aviators for shaming the profession.
