Know more about this test

The Gastrin test is a blood test that measures the level of gastrin, a hormone that stimulates the stomach to produce acid. This test helps detect abnormal gastrin production and is mainly used to help diagnose conditions linked to excessive acid production, such as Zollinger–Ellison syndrome. It may also assist doctors in assessing causes of recurrent or treatment-resistant peptic ulcers and other acid-related gastric disorders, rather than diagnosing ulcers by itself. It is widely available with Tata 1mg labs at an affordable price in Mumbai.

What does Gastrin measure?

The Gastrin test measures the concentration of the gastrin hormone in the blood, providing insight into how the stomach regulates acid production. Normally, gastrin levels rise after eating and then fall as digestion progresses. Persistently high levels may be seen in conditions such as Zollinger–Ellison syndrome, gastrin-secreting tumors (gastrinomas), G-cell hyperplasia, or pernicious anemia. In contrast, very low levels may be associated with reduced stomach acid production due to damage to acid-secreting cells.

By assessing gastrin levels, this test helps doctors evaluate whether acid regulation may be abnormal and guides further diagnosis and management. Results are interpreted alongside symptoms, use of acid-suppressing medications, and, when needed, other supportive tests.
