Yes, taking Zyrtec (cetirizine) on the day of a RAST test can potentially affect the results. Antihistamines like Zyrtec can suppress allergic reactions and may lead to false-negative results by inhibiting the immune response. It's generally recommended to avoid antihistamines for a certain period before allergy testing to ensure accurate results. Always consult with your healthcare provider for specific instructions regarding medication prior to testing.

The RAST method, or radioallergosorbent test, is advantageous because it is a blood test used to detect specific allergens that may be causing allergic reactions. It is less invasive than skin prick testing and is helpful when a patient cannot discontinue antihistamines prior to testing. RAST can also provide quantitative results, indicating the level of specific IgE antibodies present in the blood.
