Elevated blood sugar levels often go unnoticed for a long time. If left untreated, diabetes can damage blood vessels and nerves. This can lead to heart attacks, strokes, kidney problems, vision loss or poorly healing wounds. The current swiss guidelines (SGED/SSED) therefore recommend that healthy people aged 40 and over have their blood sugar measured every three years. We offer professional blood sugar testing at our pharmacy. With a small drop of blood from your fingertip, you will receive a reliable result in just a few minutes. For accurate results, we recommend taking the test in the morning on an empty stomach (after not eating anything and drinking nothing but water for at least 8 hours).
