Can Nyquil Cause False Negative Pregnancy Result?

Hi Dr. Samuel. N. Grief, I am trying to conceive and although late for my period, tested negative with a home pregnancy test. I was surprised to read that antihistamines can cause false negative results so am wondering if NyQuil would fall into this category of causing a false negative? I plan to discontinue use of Nyquil and test again in a few days if I don t get my period but am wondering how common an occurrence this is? Thanks!

Hi,

No, that is not associated with it. However, viral infections especially mono might and the reason for taking the Nyquil is often an infection.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
