A member asked:
If i consume alcohol and need to take a high blood pressure test in a couple days, will drinking show up on the test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Alcohol should be out of the system in a few days. The standard urine test looking for complications of blood pressure does not test for alcohol. Alcohol will increase your pressure a few points though.
