Postprandial Insulin Test for Dogs & Cats – At Home Pet Care
The Insulin Postprandial test measures blood insulin levels in dogs and cats after a meal, helping veterinarians evaluate how the body responds to glucose following food intake. This test is essential for diagnosing insulin resistance, monitoring diabetic pets, detecting insulinoma (insulin-secreting tumours), and assessing postprandial hyperglycaemia or hypoglycaemia in pets.
Why is the Postprandial Insulin Test Important?
After a meal, the pancreas releases insulin to help cells absorb glucose from the bloodstream. In healthy dogs and cats, insulin levels rise and fall in a predictable pattern. Abnormal postprandial insulin responses can indicate underlying conditions such as diabetes mellitus, insulinoma, or metabolic disorders. Dogs and cats respond differently to postprandial glucose and insulin spikes, making this test a valuable diagnostic tool for species-specific interpretation.
Conditions Detected:
– Diabetes mellitus in dogs and cats
– Insulinoma (pancreatic beta-cell tumours)

– Monitoring of insulin therapy in diabetic pets
