Overview
FBS test is advised for individuals who display diabetes symptoms, have a family history of diabetes, or possess risk factors like obesity, excessive alcohol consumption and smoking, and PCOS. If your previous blood glucose level was higher than the normal range, your doctor will make you undergo the FBS test again. Pregnant women also undergo this test to rule out diabetes caused by pregnancy hormones.
The FBS test is generally recommended for people who have symptoms of diabetes such as:

- Unusual hunger and thirst
- More frequent urination

Test Necessity
The FBS test is crucial because it helps detect diabetes, including the early stages, with no noticeable symptoms. With regular testing, you can manage blood sugar effectively and reduce the risk of severe diabetes-related complications.
Test Preparation
You will need to fast for at least 8 hours before taking the FBS test. This is because the test needs a fasting blood sample and taking meals will affect your blood sugar levels. You can take your regular medications before the test.
During the FBS Test
Our skilled phlebotomists prioritise your safety and comfort during the sample collection process. They will use a sterilised syringe to draw blood from a vein in your arm. Fresh test kits are used to collect samples in labelled vials. The collected blood samples are carefully stored in cooling containers or iceboxes to maintain their integrity and prevent any deterioration.
