Does alcohol show up in a medical stool sample?
No, alcohol does not show up directly in a medical stool sample.
Stool samples are primarily used to detect the presence of bacteria, parasites, or any abnormalities related to the digestive system. Alcohol is not typically tested for in a routine stool analysis.
However, indirect evidence of alcohol use may be detected through laboratory tests on blood, urine, or breath samples, which are more commonly used for alcohol-related assessments.
