Lansoprazole and test results

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hello

This may seem like a daft question but I have been advised to take a faecal calprotectin stool test for inflammation but I forgot to mention that I’ve been taking lansoprazole for nearly a month now, could this potentially affect the results? (I presume it probably will) if so, how long should I wait before i take the test?

Would be very grateful for any answers smile
