How long should i not drink alcohol prior to blood test bloodwork?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blood alcohol: If your blood test is for routine general check-up, your liver function tests might be elevated, so i suggest you refrain from drinking for several days...But again this depends on how heavy was your drinking before the test because you may have to abstain longer..
