Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone through your lab report.
Al most all parameters are within normal biological interval.
There is presence of 1+ or minimal presence of proteins in urine.
Since, the methodology of automated for urine tests, I suggest you to get the urine testsed by proteins by manual method.
You may discuss this with your lab to confirm the presence of 1+ proteins in urine by manual method.
Presence of 1+ proteins in urine suggests some kidney disorder.
However., the amount is minimal and does not signify any serious disorder.
If proteins are confirmed manually, I suggest you to consult a nephrologist for opinion.

Thanks and take care

Brief Answer:
Drugs unlikely to increase proteins in urine.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome again,
Medication is unlikely to increase proteins in urine.
In case of any false positive result, manual re-testing by sulphosalicylic acid rules out any false positive result.
The constituents of the drug needs to be known.

Thanks and take care
Dr Shailja Puri
