The Lipid Profile Test is crucial for detecting blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Early identification helps reduce the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke through timely treatment and lifestyle changes.

Before the lipid profile test, fasting is necessary. Avoid food or drinks (except water) 12 hours before the test. It helps in obtaining a clear picture of cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Certain medications like beta-blockers, hormonal therapies, and diuretics, can impact blood cholesterol levels. So, talk to your doctor before taking the test.

During the Lipid Profile Test

During the test, which takes only 3-5 minutes, a technician will draw a small blood sample from a prominent vein. PharmEasy prioritises patient safety and comfort. Our highly trained phlebotomists follow safety measures and NABL guidelines, using fresh kits and syringes for sample collection. They wear masks and gloves, ensuring accurate results in barcoded vials.

The values are the same for males and females.

The normal values, parameters, and reference ranges of the test may vary from lab to lab. Please refer to the ranges mentioned in the report and consult a doctor to understand the interpretation of lab reports.

The four main components of the lipid profile test are Total Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HDL and LDL.

The Total Cholesterol to HDL ratio is not more important than the actual values. If the lipid profile report has a higher than usual reading for Total Cholesterol, it is diagnostic of dyslipidaemia. Dyslipidaemia, if left unchecked, increases the chances of atherosclerosis and subsequent heart attacks.
