Metropolis Healthcare has rolled out three scientifically curated metabolic-health test packages under its TruHealth portfolio aimed at individuals preparing for or undergoing GLP-1–based therapies for obesity, diabetes or metabolic disorders to ensure safe initiation and ongoing monitoring.
Glimpse:
The packages TruHealth GLP-1 Ready (pre-treatment baseline), TruHealth GLP-1 Monitor (during therapy), and GLP-1 Monitor (3-Pack Subscription) (periodic follow-up) cover a wide panel of tests including glucose-insulin balance, lipid profile, liver & kidney function, cardiac risk markers, nutritional parameters, vitals and ECG.The aim is to help clinicians and patients make informed decisions, detect emerging metabolic or organ-function changes early, and improve long-term safety of GLP-1 treatments.
In view of the rising use of GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) agonist therapies in India for weight management, obesity, and glycaemic control, Metropolis Healthcare has launched a structured diagnostic framework: three new test packages under its TruHealth brand tailored to different stages of therapy.
The TruHealth GLP-1 Ready package is intended for individuals before starting GLP-1 therapy to map baseline metabolic status, including glucose–insulin ratio, lipid levels, liver and kidney health, cardiac risk, nutritional markers, vital signs and ECG. This helps assess readiness and identify pre-existing risks.
For those already on therapy, TruHealth GLP-1 Monitor offers ongoing biochemical monitoring — tracking evolving metabolic markers, early signals of deficiencies or organ stress, and facilitating timely therapy adjustments. The 3-Pack Subscription option helps maintain regular periodic assessments to build a longitudinal picture of metabolic changes and therapy response.
Metropolis’ leadership explains that with growing numbers of people turning to GLP-1 medications for obesity or diabetes a robust diagnostic support system becomes critical; many may otherwise begin or continue treatment without a clear picture of their metabolic health or how their body responds. These packages aim to fill that gap and promote safer, personalised metabolic care.
“As GLP-1 therapies gain traction across India, it is increasingly evident they must be paired with a reliable diagnostic framework These specialised packages ensure that treatment isn’t just effective it’s safe.”
