About this package

The blood count tells you that red cells are low, but the smear and the reticulocyte count tell you what they look like and how the marrow is responding. In this panel the pathologist examines the smear for the size, colour and shape of cells, which can separate iron deficiency from B12 or folate deficiency, and from inherited conditions. With iron studies, vitamin B12 and folic acid on top, most nutritional causes are covered, and the reticulocyte count shows whether the marrow is working harder. It is an efficient step when the cause of anaemia is not obvious from symptoms.

A detailed anaemia screen with a blood smear and reticulocyte count in addition to iron, B12 and folic acid.

What does this package cover?

The 6 tests are grouped into 4 health areas:

Blood count & inflammation 1 test

Red cells, white cells and platelets, blood group, and general inflammation markers.

  • Complete Blood Count (CBC)

    RBC count, haemoglobin, haematocrit, WBC count with differential (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils), platelet count, and red-cell indices (MCV, MCH, MCHC).

Iron & anaemia 2 tests

Iron stores and red-cell production - the commonest causes of anaemia and tiredness.

  • Iron Studies

    Serum iron, TIBC, UIBC (unsaturated iron-binding capacity), transferrin saturation percentage, and ferritin (the body’s iron-storage protein).

  • Reticulocyte Count

    The percentage or absolute count of reticulocytes - red blood cells that are less than a few days old.

Vitamins, bone & minerals 2 tests

Vitamin D, B12, folate and the minerals and hormones that keep bones and nerves healthy.

  • Folic acid

    The concentration of folate in the blood.

  • Vitamin B12

    Serum vitamin B12 (cobalamin) concentration.

Other tests 1 test

Additional tests included in this package.

  • Peripheral blood smear (PBS)

    Peripheral blood smear (PBS) is a blood test. Peripheral blood smear (PBS) is used in the work-up of anaemia to understand blood-cell production and iron status.

6 tests included (34 parameters)

Why consider this package?

  • 6 laboratory investigations in one booking
  • Looks at 4 health areas together, not in isolation
  • All samples collected in a single home visit
  • Costs ₹595 less than booking the tests separately
  • Useful for preventive screening, or when your doctor wants these tests together
  • Pathologist-reviewed reports shared online

Who is this package for?

Designed for

Men & women

Age group

All ages

Purpose

Health screening

People with moderate or long-standing anaemia, tiredness and breathlessness, or unusual red cell sizes noted on a routine blood count.

How often should you get it done?

Once for diagnosis, and as advised during treatment.

Not everyone needs every test. Whether this package suits you depends on your age, symptoms, family history and any ongoing treatment - your doctor can advise.

What can you learn from this package?

The package can provide information about:

  • Blood count & inflammation - Complete Blood Count (CBC)
  • Iron & anaemia - Iron Studies and Reticulocyte Count
  • Vitamins, bone & minerals - Folic acid and Vitamin B12
  • Other tests - Peripheral blood smear (PBS)

A package gives individual results for each test - it does not diagnose disease by itself.

How to prepare

  • Fast for 8 to 10 hours before the sample - plain water is allowed. An early-morning slot makes this easier.
  • Drink water as usual, and avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise for 24 hours before.
  • Take your regular medicines unless your doctor advises otherwise, and tell the phlebotomist what you take.
  • Wear a loose-sleeved top so the blood sample can be collected easily.

Understanding your package report

Your report lists the result of each test separately, with its own unit and reference range. Values outside the range are highlighted.

There is no single overall "health score" - each result is read on its own and then together with the others. One out-of-range value is not a diagnosis, and a normal report does not guarantee you are completely healthy.

Share the report with your doctor, who will interpret it with your symptoms and history. Call us if you need help reading it.

Frequently asked questions

What can a blood smear reveal?

A pathologist can see whether red cells are small and pale, large and oval, or oddly shaped. These patterns point to iron, B12 or folate deficiency, or to inherited conditions such as thalassaemia.

Is fasting required?

Yes, eight to ten hours, mainly for the iron measurement. Water is allowed.

How is this different from the Basic version?

The Basic version checks the blood count, ferritin and B12. This one adds iron studies, folic acid, the smear and reticulocytes, for a deeper look at cause.

Will it tell me if I have thalassaemia?

It may raise the suspicion through small red cells and a normal ferritin, but confirmation needs a haemoglobin analysis. Our complete panel includes a hemoglobinopathy profile.
