Advisory Notice

⚠ Do not discontinue or alter prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. Fasting requirements must be followed strictly for 12 hours (water only) to ensure fasting glucose accuracy. Inform your phlebotomist of any current illness or medications.

Exclusion Criteria & ER Red Flags

Postpone the test if you are currently ill with fever, acute infection, or recent trauma – stress hyperglycemia may confound results.
Seek emergency care immediately for severe hyperglycemia symptoms (confusion, fruity‑smelling breath, rapid breathing) or hypoglycemia (sweating, palpitations, loss of consciousness).

Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance

1. What is the Diabetes Panel 1 test and why is it done?

The Diabetes Panel 1 is a three‑in‑one diagnostic profile that measures fasting glucose, postprandial glucose, and HbA1c to screen, diagnose, and monitor diabetes mellitus in one blood draw. This comprehensive approach replaces isolated glucose checks, giving your physician a full picture of immediate and long‑term blood sugar control.

2. Do I need to fast for Diabetes Panel 1?

Yes, a minimum 12‑hour fast is mandatory; only plain water is allowed for accurate fasting glucose results. Postprandial glucose requires a blood sample exactly 2 hours after you eat a standard meal.

3. How fast do results come and what is the price?

Results are reported same‑day at a price of 170 AED, with free clinical guidance call included. The total turnaround time is daily; you’ll receive a telephonic interpretation to understand every value.

4. Can I have the test done at home?

Yes, VIP Mobile Phlebotomy is available daily from 8 AM to 11 PM. A certified phlebotomist will visit your home or office with temperature-controlled cold-chain transport to preserve sample integrity.
