TPMT (Thiopurine Methyltransferase) Test in Pune

Direct answer: The TPMT test checks how your body breaks down thiopurine medicines to reduce the risk of severe drug side effects.

The TPMT (Thiopurine Methyltransferase) test measures the activity of an enzyme that helps process thiopurine medications such as azathioprine, mercaptopurine, and thioguanine. These medicines are commonly prescribed for autoimmune conditions, inflammatory bowel disease, and certain blood disorders. At healthcare nt sickcare, this test is available in Pune with both home collection and direct walk-in facility options.

A low or absent TPMT enzyme level can lead to dangerous drug toxicity, including bone marrow suppression and severe infections. This blood test helps doctors personalise medication dosage safely before or during treatment. Symptoms like frequent infections, unexplained fatigue, or low blood counts may indicate the need for TPMT testing. The test supports safer long-term therapy planning for patients across Pune, Maharashtra, India.

Why the TPMT Test is Recommended

Direct answer: It helps doctors prevent serious side effects from thiopurine medicines by adjusting treatment safely.

TPMT testing is advised before starting thiopurine therapy to identify patients at risk of adverse reactions. It is also used during treatment if unexpected side effects occur. This test supports precision medicine by matching drug dose to individual enzyme activity.

Test Method & Sample Type

The TPMT test requires a simple blood sample. Sample collection can be done at home or via walk-in at our Pune collection points. No hospital admission is required.

Preparation for TPMT Test

No fasting is required for this test. Patients should inform their doctor about current medications before sample collection. For general guidance, refer to our test preparation guides.

When is TPMT Testing Advised?

Direct answer: TPMT testing is advised before starting thiopurine medicines or when treatment side effects appear.

This test is especially important for patients diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, autoimmune disorders, or certain haematological conditions. It helps reduce complications linked to incorrect drug dosing.
