A member asked:

What does a reactive rpr test mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See your doctor: A reactive RPR may mean that you have an infection with the organism that causes syphilis (t. Pallidum). You may need to have additional testing to confirm. If you're infected, you will need to take medication to treat it.
