Brief Answer:
Should declare any controlled medications that you are on (even if You've taken for Once)

Detailed Answer:
Tramadol can show up as an opiate in a drug test, yes. This may cause you to fail the test if you did not declare this as a medication you are taking.

You should declare any controlled medications you are being prescribed to your employer, that includes substances which are taken even once in past 24-72 hrs.
