FAQs
What does the Dengue Profile test include?
The Dengue Profile consists of three essential tests:
- NS1 Antigen Test – Detects dengue virus in the early stages.
- IgM Antibody Test – Confirms recent infection.
- IgG Antibody Test – Indicates past exposure or immunity to dengue.
Who should get the Dengue Profile test?
Anyone experiencing high fever, severe headache, joint pain, muscle aches, nausea, or rashes should take this test. If you live in or have recently traveled to a dengue-prone area, early testing is recommended.
How soon can dengue be detected?
The NS1 Antigen Test can detect dengue within the first few days of infection, while IgM antibodies appear after 4-5 days. IgG antibodies indicate a past infection and potential immunity.
Can this test differentiate between current and past dengue infections?
Yes. NS1 Antigen and IgM Antibodies confirm an active infection, while IgG Antibodies indicate a previous infection or long-term immunity.
How often should I get tested for dengue during an infection?
If you test negative in the early stages, a repeat test after 3–5 days is advisable to confirm the diagnosis. Doctors may also suggest additional blood tests to monitor platelet count and liver function for managing severe cases.
