Regarding HIV and Hepatitis screening tests

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and noted your concern.

There is no effect of these medicines (for fever) on the result of HIV and HBV screening tests. I mean the screening test results are reliable irrespective of fever or medicines for it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance.
