RANDOM SUGAR Glucose is the main source of energy for the body, obtained from the breakdown of carbohydrates. Once absorbed into the blood, glucose is transported to the cells. It is then converted into energy. The hormone insulin, produced by the pancreas, helps regulate blood glucose levels by allowing glucose to enter the cells.When insulin levels are low or the body becomes resistant to its effects, blood glucose levels can rise. Persistently high glucose levels may indicate diabetes mellitus or prediabetes. Prediabetes is a condition in which blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes.The RBS (Random Blood Sugar) test helps in the early detection of diabetes, which can prevent serious complications like heart disease, kidney damage, eye damage and nerve problems. It is also useful for monitoring glucose levels in individuals already diagnosed with diabetes, checking for hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), and assessing the effectiveness of diabetes medications or insulin therapy.Doctors may recommend the RBS (Random Blood Sugar) test if you experience symptoms suggestive of diabetes, such as excessive thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, unexplained weight loss or gain, and blurred vision.Fasting is not needed for this test. It can be performed at any time of the day, regardless of when you last ate. This makes it a convenient test for quickly assessing blood sugar levels, especially in emergency or routine screening situations. However, it is important to inform your doctor about all current medications, as some may influence glucose levels and may require dose adjustments before the test.RBS test result ranges may vary across the laboratories depending on the methodology and laboratory guidelines. Do not self-medicate. Always consult your doctor to understand your test results. The results will help them understand your condition, suggest lifestyle changes like diet and exercise, decide if you need medication, and create a treatment plan.

Random sugar
▾
The RBS (Random Blood Sugar) test measures the amount of glucose circulating in your blood at any random time. Since glucose levels vary during the day depending on meals, physical activity, and hormone balance, this test provides a quick snapshot of your body’s ability to regulate sugar.
Persistently high random glucose levels may indicate insulin resistance, prediabetes, or diabetes mellitus (type 1 or type 2). It can also be used to check how well diabetes is being managed with medication, diet, or lifestyle changes.
