Unfortunately it can actually be very hard to tell when someone is on drugs, depending on how much they take, and how long they've been doing it for.
Watch for violent mood swings, or other strangeness - of course if you already think he might be abusing pills again, then you will probably see things that convince you even more, even if it isn't the case.
Obviously he is going to deny it if you ask him - but you need to be able to trust him, if he breaks that trust - then you should consider leaving him.
Look closely to his eyes, his pupils. If they are very very small--"pin"-- he has been taking some sort of opiate.NOT at all dilated-usually speed stuff causes that but not pills. A real addict can hide all the other signs but thats one physical aspect they cant get rid of.
