yes, pressure rated pipe is obviously rated for drainage too, as long as you have a pressure rating xxx-PSI on your pipe go ahead and use it

yeah, but a pipe rated for 200 psi is obviously rated for drainage purposes, as long as it has the pressure rating you're fine

Like said above, if there is a PSI rating, your good (some pipe companies label things weird).

Spudshot and PCGUY nailed it on the head quite nicely. If it has a pressure rating, disregard the DWV. Of course, if you can't find a pressure rating, you might want to reconsider using it.
