Information

C-Peptide is usually measured to provide answers to two different questions that deal with what type of diabetes a person has, such as diabetes 1 or diabetes 2, and in the event of a diabetes diagnosis to be able to make a decision about what type of diabetes treatment to example to start with insulin or not. People with type 1 diabetes often have low or absent C-peptide levels, unlike people with type 2 diabetes who usually have normal or elevated levels.

C-Peptide should be used as a blood test that can help answer the above questions and should not be measured separately but together with glucose.
