Basic Health Checkup Package
A basic health checkup can bring several important health markers together in one organised screening rather than checking them separately. Al Safa Lab’s Basic Health Checkup Package includes 15 laboratory checks covering blood health, blood sugar, cholesterol, liver and kidney markers, thyroid function, vitamin D, iron stores, viral screening, and urinary health.
It is designed as a practical starting point for adults who want a broad laboratory overview of key health indicators or routine follow-up.

Who May Benefit From a Basic Health Check?
A basic health checkup may be useful for adults who want to review important health markers as part of routine monitoring or periodic health screening.
It may also be considered when:
- You have not had routine blood tests recently.
- You want to check several health markers together.
- You are following blood sugar or cholesterol levels.
- You want to review liver, kidney, or thyroid-related markers.
- You want vitamin D and iron-store measurements included.
- A healthcare provider has recommended routine laboratory screening.
Preparing for Your Health Checkup
- The package requires 10 hours of fasting because it includes fasting blood glucose and lipid testing.
- During the fasting period, water is allowed. Avoid food, juice, coffee, tea, soft drinks, and other calorie-containing beverages until the blood sample has been collected.
- A urine sample is also required as part of the package.
Is Fasting Required?
For the most accurate results, this package generally requires 10 hours of fasting, as several tests—particularly fasting blood glucose and the lipid profile—are influenced by recent food intake.
During the fasting period:
- Water is allowed.
- Avoid food, soft drinks, juices, tea, coffee, and chewing gum unless instructed otherwise.
- Continue taking medications only according to your physician’s or laboratory’s instructions.
If you are unsure whether fasting is necessary for your situation, our team will provide preparation instructions before your appointment.
Receiving and Understanding Your Results
Laboratory results provide measurable information but should not be interpreted in isolation. A result outside the reference range does not always confirm a disease, and a result within range does not exclude every health condition.
Discuss unexpected findings with your physician, particularly when you have symptoms, take regular medication, are pregnant, or have an existing medical condition. Additional testing may be recommended based on the results and clinical assessment.
