Medication guidance:

Continue taking all regular prescribed medication unless your doctor has specifically asked you to stop before this test. Inform the lab staff about all medications, supplements, and herbal remedies you are currently taking. Some substances affect specific test values, and this information helps your doctor interpret results accurately.

What to bring:

Bring your prescription, a government-issued ID, and your OPD insurance details. Inform the phlebotomist of any recent illness, active infections, allergy to latex, or history of fainting during blood draws , so appropriate care can be taken during the procedure.

Timing:

The best time for blood tests is in the morning after an overnight fast and a night of normal rest. Stress, poor sleep, and strenuous activity can affect several hormonal and metabolic markers. Booking a morning slot minimises these variables.
