Fasting plasma glucose is a laboratory test that measures the concentration of glucose in the blood after an individual has fasted for at least 8 hours. The test is used to diagnose or monitor diabetes mellitus, a chronic condition characterized by high levels of glucose in the blood due to defects in insulin production, insulin action, or both. Normal fasting plasma glucose levels are typically in the range of 70-99 mg/dL. Levels between 100-125 mg/dL are indicative of prediabetes, while levels above 126 mg/dL on two separate occasions are diagnostic of diabetes.
