Diabetes is a common health disorder in India, and hence PharmEasy Labs offers RBS test at competitive rates.

The RBS test can give your doctor a clear picture of how much glucose is present in your blood. High levels of glucose indicate a problem with insulin. Either there isn't enough insulin in your system, or your cells are not responding to the insulin. This helps the doctor decide whether further glucose tests are necessary to pinpoint the type of diabetes.

Though RBS is a very important test that gives an accurate reading of blood sugar levels at any time of the day, doctors usually prescribe it only to see if you have diabetes but not for pre-diabetes. This is because our blood sugar levels fluctuate throughout the day, and close after a meal, the levels are naturally a little higher than usual. If an RBS test is done soon after a meal, it may show elevated glucose levels that appear to be in the pre-diabetes range but are actually quite normal because, after a while, the levels would drop.

The RBS test is also very useful in monitoring diabetes.

The fluctuation in the cost of a RBS test is influenced by various factors. However, the usual price for an RBS test at PharmEasy in Amritsar is around INR 89 to INR 269. You can also compare RBS test prices in major Indian cities for a comprehensive understanding.

Your doctor will recommend this test if you have a predisposition towards diabetes for example, if you have a family history of diabetes, had gestational diabetes or have high blood pressure or a high body mass index.

The RBS also becomes necessary when you start showing the symptoms of diabetes, such as-

• Frequent need to urinate
• A constant feeling of thirst
• Exhaustion
• A vision that is blurry
• Persistent hunger
• A rapid change in weight

Your doctor will also want you to undergo the RBS test at regular intervals if you have diabetes to see if the medication dosage needs to be altered.

Since the RBS test is meant to randomly check a person's blood sugar levels, it requires no preparation at all. You can eat, drink fluids and water as you normally do. Don't drink more water than normal because too much water may affect your blood sugar readings.

During the RBS Test

Since the RBS test is a blood test, you can expect a phlebotomist from PharmEasy Labs to come to your home on the day and at the time that you chose. A vein finder will be used to pinpoint the correct vein and with clean new needles and syringes, a small volume of blood will be drawn. The sample will then be sent to the labs.
