About the Lipid Profile test

Assesses cholesterol fractions and triglycerides to support cardiovascular risk assessment. Cholesterol screening and cardiovascular risk evaluation.

Before your sample

Fasting requirements vary; a non-fasting sample is often acceptable, but fasting may be requested for high triglycerides or specific clinical needs. LDL calculated from a lipid profile can differ from a directly measured LDL test.

Understanding the result

Risk depends on age, blood pressure, diabetes, smoking and other factors—not cholesterol alone. Discuss lipid results in the context of overall cardiovascular risk.

Clinical safety: A laboratory test is one part of clinical assessment. Do not delay urgent medical attention for chest pain, breathing difficulty, severe bleeding or serious illness.
