Simply put, No
There is always a possibility of having to fast before any lab work. You may need to fast for 10 or 12 hours before basic CBC and CMP lab draws, depending on the orders of the doctor. Follow any orders that your doctor gives you.
no need to fast for these tests.
You should be able to drink coffee before a CBC (Complete Blood count) test, unless your doctor ordered additional blood tests and tells you to not drink after midnight (NPO=nothing by mouth).
Will a Cbc blood test show cocaine
Yes, a Complete Blood Count (CBC) test does not specifically detect cocaine. You would need a specific blood test to detect the presence of cocaine in your blood, such as a blood drug test.
