A member asked:
I had a crp lab test done. one of my medications i take is an anti inflammatory (meloxicam). my question is, will the meloxicam affect the results?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: CRP as a test has limited value. Why did you do this test in the first place???. Your doctor who ordered this test can advise you better.
