The Liver Function Tests (LFT) profile—also called a liver panel—measures bilirubin (total/direct/indirect), ALT/AST, ALP, GGT, total protein, albumin, and globulin with A/G ratio. In Jamshedpur, the Thyrocare LFT panel covers all 12 parameters, enabling accurate screening for hepatitis, fatty liver, cholestasis, alcohol- or drug-related injury, and treatment monitoring. Home collection, NABL-accredited processing, and transparent offers make it convenient to test without delaying care.
Typical symptoms prompting an LFT include persistent fatigue, nausea, jaundice, dark urine, pale stools, itching, abdominal discomfort, or suspected medication/alcohol toxicity. If you’re on statins, anti-TB drugs, or long-term therapy, periodic LFT monitoring is often advised by clinicians.
*TAT policy: Samples collected by 9:00 AM → ~10 hours; after 9:00 AM → ~15 hours. Locality and transit may affect timing.

LFT at a glance: who needs it & what it shows›
Why clinicians order an LFT
LFT helps screen liver injury, differentiate hepatocellular (ALT/AST-predominant) versus cholestatic (ALP/GGT-predominant) patterns, and track response to therapy. It is integral to preventive health checkups and comprehensive metabolic panels.
Common indications
- Unexplained tiredness, anorexia, nausea, jaundice, pruritus
- Medication monitoring (e.g., statins, anti-TB drugs)
- Alcohol- or NAFLD-related risk, viral hepatitis follow-up
- Baseline evaluation before treatment or surgery
Preparation, collection & reporting›
The sample is collected by a trained phlebotomist. Fasting is not mandatory for LFT alone, but recommended if you also opt for lipid or glucose tests. Stay hydrated; avoid strenuous exercise and alcohol beforehand. Reports are typically same-day with cutoff-based TAT: ~10 h if collected by 9:00 AM; ~15 h if collected after 9:00 AM. You may either visit a Thyrocare branch or request home/office collection.
Pricing, offers & how to save›
In Jamshedpur, LFT pricing varies by provider and whether home collection is chosen. With Thyrocare via HealthcareOffers, bundled add-ons (KFT, TFT, Lipid Profile, CBC) reduce overall cost, and you may qualify for free home collection for a total order value above ₹699 within 5 KM distance from any branch.
