    What is a Influenza Profile - Comprehensive ?

    An Influenza test is key to determining whether you have a flu virus infection, especially the A or B strains, which are responsible for most seasonal flu outbreaks. This viral illness predominantly occurs in winter and is easily transmitted through coughing, sneezing, or contact with contaminated surfaces. While flu symptoms share similarities with those of the common cold—such as a runny nose and cough—they are often more severe and can lead to serious complications.

    If flu is suspected, this test can confirm the diagnosis. Should the results be positive, medications may be prescribed to address the virus and manage your symptoms.

    Our Comprehensive Influenza Package is aimed at detecting flu caused by both influenza A and B, as well as specific strains including H1N1, H3N2, and COVID-19. If you are experiencing symptoms like headaches, body aches, a sore throat, or fever and live in Hyderabad, this package can assist in identifying the cause. Book an Influenza test in Hyderabad today for accurate diagnosis and prompt care.

    Influenza Profile - Comprehensive Parameters

    COVID -19 RT PCR

    This test is used to detect the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19. It uses a method known as Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) to identify the virus's genetic material in a sample taken from the patient's respiratory tract. It is highly accurate and is the gold standard for diagnosing COVID-19.

    Influenza Virus Panel - Real Time PCR

    This is a diagnostic panel that uses real-time PCR technology to detect and differentiate between Influenza A, Influenza B, H1N1, and H3N2. It helps in the rapid and accurate diagnosis of influenza and its subtypes.

    Why Take the Influenza Profile - Comprehensive Checkup?

    Should you experience flu-like symptoms such as sudden fever, dry cough, headache, sore throat, chills, runny nose, muscle aches, fatigue, or loss of appetite, it may be crucial to speak with your doctor about the need for an Influenza test. While most individuals recover from the flu within a week or two without testing, certain risk factors may lead your doctor to recommend it.

    Risk factors that may need an Influenza test include:

    • A weakened immune system

    • Ongoing chronic illnesses

    • Pregnancy
