Many lipid and glucose-related blood tests need fasting. Here is a plain preparation guide for Klinik Muhibbah's in-house lab in Masai — confirm your exact panel with reception because not every blood test requires fasting.
For common fasting lipids / glucose panels, aim for 8–12 hours without food unless your doctor gives a different instruction. Plain water is usually allowed; skip coffee, tea with milk, juice and chewing gum.
Ask before stopping regular medicines — blood pressure tablets are often still taken with water unless told otherwise.
Lab hub: blood test Masai. Morning slots reduce waiting hungry.
MyKad/passport, panel card if claiming, previous lab results, and your medicine list. Tell us if you are pregnant or feel unwell when fasting.

Usually yes — plain water. Confirm if your specific test has stricter rules.
Tell reception before the draw — some tests can proceed non-fasting; others should be rescheduled.
Follow paediatric instructions from the doctor — do not force long fasts without advice.
Many routine tests return promptly; complex send-outs take longer — ask when sampled.
