Can certain medications cause you to show negative on a pregnancy test when you showed positive first?

Yes. Well most medicines do go directly to our blood streams which means the blood carries alien products that could read different results for different tests. So if you are taking some medication, better to finish the dose if its not harmful to pregnancy as per the doctor's instructions or simply pause that absorption, wait for a few days for you body to detox then the test again.

Can certain illnesses give you a positive pregnancy test result if you aren't pregnant?
I am assuming you are referring to a urine pregnancy test which tests for Beta hCG. There are also blood tests, which are more specific, for pregnancy. The urine beta hCG test may be positive for other reasons than pregnancy. Certain cancers of the testicles and the ovary are diseases that can provide a positive pregnancy test. Also, a lot of blood or protein in the urine can give a false positive on a pregnancy test. There are also some medications that have been reported to cause false positives such as some anti-convulsants and anti-parkinson medications. Overall, though, the urine pregnancy test is very accurate. Any female who tests positive on a urine pregnancy test should arrange for an appointment to see a physician for follow-up.
Is certain a negative connotation or positive correlation?

How do you challenge the lab results in false positive?
I would look at your hcg levels from the report. An hCG level of less than 5mIU/ml is considered negative for pregnancy, and anything above 25mIU/ml is considered positive for pregnancy. out of curiosity, why would you challenge? Are you certain you are not pregnant?
