Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
The drugs which you are currently taking , do not cause rise in blood potassium levels. So do not worry about that.
Repeat the test again. If it comes positive still then get your renal function tests done to know cause for high potassium.
I hope I have answered your query. Revert back in case you have any doubts.
Best regards,
