A member asked:
Why would i have ascorbic acid (+) in my urine? i have blood ca.50 urobil 4 bilirubin ++ protein 100 leukocytes ca.500 the rest was normal
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dipstick UA: Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) at higher concentration in urine samples can lead to false results in a number of urine tests, particularly false negative results in glucose and hemoglobin analysis. The urine may have to be repeated with a different type of test or further evaluation and treatment may be warranted depending on the clinical presentation.
