Know more about this test
The Varicella Zoster, IgM antibody test looks for immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in the blood. Available with Tata 1 mg labs in Noida at an affordable price, this test helps identify recent or active infection with VZV, which is responsible for chickenpox (Varicella) and shingles (Herpes Zoster).
The Varicella Zoster, IgM antibody is advised if you exhibit symptoms such as fever, fatigue, headache, itchy blister like rash on the skin etc suggestive of recent VZV infections or have been exposed to the virus. It is primarily used to diagnose primary varicella (chickenpox) or to differentiate between primary infection and reactivation of the virus (shingles). This test is also important for healthcare workers, pregnant women, individuals traveling to areas where chickenpox is common, those with weak immune systems who are at higher risk for complications from VZV infections.
No special preparation is required for the Varicella Zoster, IgM antibody. Eat and drink as per your daily routine.
