The C-peptide test is a medical examination that measures the level of C-peptide in the blood, providing insights into insulin production by the pancreas. C-peptide is released at the same time as insulin and can help assess the body's ability to produce insulin on its own. This test is valuable for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes, as low C-peptide levels may indicate decreased insulin production. By understanding C-peptide levels, doctors can tailor treatment plans, determine the appropriate use of insulin, and manage diabetes effectively for optimal health outcomes.

Does Metformin and Insulin increase c-peptide?
Metformin stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin and hence might increase c-peptide levels depending on the condition of the pancreas. Insulin when produced by the body increases the c-peptide levels. But insulin injection used to treat type 1 and sometimes type 2 diabetes does not increase the c-peptide levels.
What does high c-peptide indicate?
C-peptide levels depend on the blood sugar level. High c-peptide means that the body is producing more insulin.
What is the normal range of C peptide test?
A value of 0.5-2.0 (ng/mL), or 0.2-0.8 (nmol/L) is considered normal.
