Health Check
Guidelines on Health Check Preparation
- Normal to light diet is recommended a few days prior to the health check.
- Please fast for at least 8 hours before the scheduled health check in order to optimize the accuracy of the test results. Please bring along some snacks on the health check day to eat after blood draw.
- For diabetes patients, please do not take any hypoglycemic drugs/agents or inject insulin during the period of fasting so as to prevent hypoglycemia. Medicines for heart diseases or blood pressure can be taken as usual with small amount of water. Please bring along all the medicines you take for record.
- Clients should collect 2 stool specimens for fecal occult blood tests.
