Blood Sugar test
Can we drink water before blood sugar test while doing non fasting check for blood sugar
Should we wait for 2 hours or we can get the same checked after 1 and half hour
Hello there.
Drinking water is fine, but for post prandial blood sugar, you need to get it done after 2 hours only as that's the standard which is set or else the results won't be considered proper. Regards
