Do you take or skip antidepresssnt antianxiey meds before a glucose tolerance test?
Kathyesposito378460
Only your doctor can advise you of whether you should take or skip your antidepressant anti-anxiety meds before a glucose tolerance test. You have to fast for eight hours prior to the test so it has to be done early in the morning. You can always just hold off on the medication until the test is finished.

Why are patients fasted before Oral Glucose Tolerance Test?
To make the results all the same for different people. If you have eaten food prior to the test, the results will be different - actually fasting before the test might avoid any false result. because when we are fasting the glucose supply will be cut and so, this will not interfere with the glucose loaded during the experiment. because what we want to observe is how the body will react with that particular amount of glucose intake in the given time.

What diagnostic tests are used to confirm diabetes?
There are several blood tests that can diagnose diabetes. The most common is a fasting blood glucose test, where the glucose level is measured after at least eight hours of fasting. The blood glucose can be measured without fasting, but it can only diagnose diabetes, not prediabetes. The oral glucose tolerance test monitors how a body responds to an influx of glucose. After fasting for a least 8 hours, blood glucose levels are measured before and every 30-60 minutes after the ingestion of a glucose beverage for three hours. A urine test for high levels of glucose and ketones can help diagnose diabetes, but these results are not enough on their own.
