vdrl test is done for T. pallidum the causative agent of the syphilis. there is a variation in results kit by kit and laboratory by laboratory. so as any one parameter changed your result also changes. as if you are on antbiotics than your last result wealkly reactive also considered as weakly reactive. so do not worry carry on your course of antibiotics.
