What is C-peptide (Random)?

A C-peptide (Random) test measures the amount of C-peptide in your blood at any time of day, without specific fasting or meal timing. It provides a general snapshot of your body's insulin production.

Why is this test important?

This test is useful for a quick assessment of insulin production, especially when fasting or post-meal tests are not practical or immediate results are needed. It aids in diagnosing and monitoring diabetes and related conditions.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required. You can eat and drink as usual before this test.
