Do I need to fast or halt my medications before my Geviti blood draw?

Fast 12 hours; stop non-essential supplements 72 hours prior.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

It is recommended that you halt any non-essential medications and supplements 72 hours in advance of your blood draw. This ensures we get the most accurate reading of your levels without interference from exogenous substances.

Testing requirements:

  • Fast for 12 hours (water is fine)

  • Continue essential prescription medications

  • Stop vitamins, supplements, and herbs 72 hours before

  • Avoid strenuous exercise 24 hours prior

Please consult with a healthcare professional to determine what is considered "essential" vs "non-essential." Never discontinue prescribed medications without your doctor's approval.
