The Type 2 Diabetes Screening Package is designed to assess blood sugar levels, insulin function, and long-term glucose control. It helps detect early signs of diabetes, monitor existing conditions, and evaluate insulin resistance, which is a key factor in Type 2 diabetes.
Key Features of This Package:
✔ Blood Sugar Monitoring – Measures fasting and post-meal glucose levels to detect diabetes or prediabetes.
✔ Insulin Function Analysis – Evaluates insulin production and resistance to determine metabolic health.
✔ Long-Term Glucose Control – The HbA1c test provides a 2-3 month average of blood sugar levels for better diabetes management.
✔ Risk Assessment for Type 2 Diabetes – HOMA Index helps assess insulin resistance, a major cause of Type 2 diabetes.
This package is ideal for individuals at risk of diabetes, those with a family history, or anyone experiencing symptoms like fatigue, excessive thirst, and frequent urination. Early detection allows for timely intervention and lifestyle modifications to prevent complications.

This package is designed to assess blood sugar levels, insulin function, and long-term glucose control, helping to detect early signs of diabetes and monitor existing conditions. It evaluates insulin resistance, which is a key factor in Type 2 diabetes. It is particularly beneficial for individuals at risk of diabetes, those with a family history, or anyone experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, excessive thirst, and frequent urination. Early detection through this package allows for timely intervention and lifestyle modifications to prevent complications.
Who should take this test?
Anyone with risk factors like obesity, family history of diabetes, or symptoms like excessive thirst, frequent urination, and unexplained fatigue.
Do I need to fast before this test?
Yes, a minimum of 8-12 hours fasting is required for fasting glucose, insulin, and HOMA Index tests.
How often should I take this test?
If you have diabetes, your doctor may recommend every 3-6 months for monitoring. If you are at risk, annual screening is advisable.
What does a high HbA1c indicate?
An HbA1c above 6.5% suggests diabetes, while 5.7% to 6.4% may indicate prediabetes.
Can this test detect prediabetes?
Yes, Glucose Fasting, Glucose PP, and HbA1c can help diagnose prediabetes before it progresses to Type 2 diabetes.
