Quick answer
Not on standard panels; requires a dedicated assay. It is metabolised to psilocin, so specialised psilocin testing may apply. In Alabama, marijuana status is: medical-only.

Testing in Alabama
Alabama allows workplace drug testing and employers may act on positive results. A medical card does not shield an employee from testing, and state law does not require employers to accommodate off-duty use.
Alabama does not broadly protect off-duty cannabis use in employment; employers may still enforce drug-free workplace policies and test under state law.
About 4-AcO-DMT
4-AcO-DMT is a synthetic tryptamine that the body converts to psilocin, the active compound in psilocybin mushrooms. It is not part of standard employment panels.
Because it metabolises to psilocin, specialised testing that targets psilocin may detect it; routine panels will not.
Detection windows for tryptamines are short, typically under a day in urine.
