Should I continue taking my regular medications before testing?

Back to FAQs

Yes, you should continue your regular medications unless your medical provider instructs otherwise. Many medications can cause side effects when stopped abruptly.

If you take nonessential nutritional supplements, consider pausing them temporarily for more accurate test results, particularly if you’re testing nutritional levels.
