There is no medication for upper respiratory infections and / or influenza that will interfere with blood tests so please keep taking these essential medications. If anyone has not received their influenza vaccine please do so. There are upwards of 50 000 deaths and some years as many as 500 000 hospitalizations due to influenza.

No.. If taking a blood test the following day, you should refrain from ALL types of drugs(aspirin and on up) and of course, foods from at least 7 pm to the time the next morning that you take a blood test.

Over the counter remedies should have no bearing on blood tests unless your being drug tested. This is because some contain codeine. Read the advice on back of pack and let whoever takes your blood know if your still unsure.

Do you want to shift the flu and re-make an appoinment for the bloods or suffer that little bit longer?

See no reason why not. People on much stronger medication that that - eg chemo - have blood tests all the time and they don't have to stop the medication in advance.

Depends on what test. If they are tests for illness or physiologic tests, it would be okay. If you are drug testing for work, I would think you would want to avoid this type of medication.
