CLIENT LAB TEST PREPARATION
Sometimes special preparation is required to improve the accuracy of a test. This may involve fasting (not eating any or certain foods) for several hours or even overnight, drinking more or less water than usual, or avoiding certain medications or vitamin and herbal supplements before the test. Your physician should provide you with written instructions for preparing for your test. Follow those instructions exactly as they are written. If you are not certain if special preparation is required, contact your physician’s office or you may inquire at the lab in advance. Call 528-46-12 LAB DEPT
For Pre-employment medical test which consists of the 8 basic examination, there's no need for fasting. It's only for those who will undergo Blood Chemistry testing. If you did not follow the test preparation instructions, inform the staff at the lab about this before your specimen is collected. THANK YOU VERY MUCH! |
