If you’re an AOPA member, they also have a database that gives you this information.
Just 30 seconds ago I searched for Benadryl, and found out that one must wait 60 hours after the last dosage before flying.
Maybe ALPA has this also.

Assuming you're an ALPA member in good standing you can call AMAS (303) 341-4435. I call them every time I've got a question like yours, no worries about internet warriors giving me the wrong poop and then pysin' hot.

That's not really a worry as they only Pee test for 5 illicit drugs. That changes a bit on 1 Jan as they will add synthetic opiates like OxyContin to the list. Any of those would be prescription.

If awarded a reserve line, and you fly on your "off" days during your OE shadow period, do you get payback days?
Marijuana
Cocaine
Opiates
Amphetamines and Meth-Amphetamines
PCP
For Opiates they only test for Opium and Codeine derivatives. Oxycontin is technically an opiod and not an opiate because of the synthetic properties it has. The DOT test for pilots and truck drivers has not tested for this type of opiate before.
It has never tested for OTC meds like cold medication. The law still requires you to follow the rules for those meds. If you ever have a serious incident or accident and get a blood test afterwards they can find OTC meds, but a random drug test will not detect them.
