Medication guidance:

Continue taking all regular prescribed medication unless your doctor has specifically asked you to stop before this test. Inform the lab staff about all medications, supplements, and herbal remedies you are currently taking. Some substances affect specific test values, and this information helps your doctor interpret results accurately.
