lastminuteman, NO, a urinalysis is NOT used to test for any drugs used to treat hypertension. A routine urinalysis tests for such items as: color, clarity, pH, specific gravity, glucose (sugar), acetone (ketones), protein, red blood cells, pus cells, bilirubin, some crystals, and kidney casts. The majority of tests for medicines are done on blood samples, not urine.Ill be taking a medical examintion and i was wondering if a urninalysis would show that im under medication?
No it doesnt show up any medications that you are on, it just shows if there is blood, nitrates, lucocytes, protiens, the pH, specific gravity, glucose and ketones in your urine. :)
