The Insulin – Random Test is a blood test that measures the level of insulin in the blood at any given time, regardless of meals. Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that helps regulate blood sugar levels by enabling glucose to enter cells. This test is useful for evaluating insulin production and identifying abnormalities in glucose metabolism. It may be used in the assessment of diabetes, insulin resistance, hypoglycemia, or pancreatic disorders.

The purpose of this test is to:

• Measure insulin levels at any time of the day
• Assess insulin production and function
• Support diagnosis of diabetes and metabolic disorders
• Help evaluate unexplained blood sugar fluctuations
