Short answer: In East Delhi you can manage diabetes largely from home — book an HbA1c or fasting/PP blood-sugar test with home sample collection, and get genuine diabetes medicines (like Metformin) delivered to your door at 30–80% below MRP. AsliMeds covers Laxmi Nagar, Preet Vihar, Mayur Vihar, Shahdara, Krishna Nagar and nearby areas, with prescription upload and cash on delivery.
Which tests should a person with diabetes do regularly?
These are the tests doctors most commonly rely on. Your doctor will tell you how often you need each one:
- HbA1c — your average blood sugar over ~3 months. Usually every 3–6 months.
- Fasting blood sugar (FBS) and post-prandial (PP) — day-to-day control.
- Lipid profile — cholesterol and triglycerides, since diabetes affects heart risk.
- Kidney function (KFT) and urine test — to catch early kidney effects.
All of these can be done from a single home blood sample, so you don't need to visit a lab in person.

How to manage diabetes affordably from home
- Test on schedule. Book your HbA1c and sugar tests with home collection so you never skip monitoring.
- Share reports with your doctor. Let your doctor adjust your treatment based on the numbers — never self-adjust your dose.
- Buy the generic of your prescribed medicine. Common diabetes medicines have genuine generics at a fraction of the branded price.
- Set up regular delivery. Order your monthly medicines online so you don't run out.
Are diabetes generic medicines reliable?
Yes. A generic diabetes medicine contains the same active ingredient at the same strength as the branded version (for example, the same Metformin dose) and is regulated by CDSCO under GMP standards. It's the same treatment at a lower price — you're not paying for the brand name. Always take the exact medicine and dose your doctor prescribed.
Everyday habits that support your medicines
Medicines work best alongside daily habits: a balanced plate with more fibre and fewer refined carbs, a 30-minute walk (easy to do in East Delhi's parks and colonies), staying hydrated, and regular sleep. These don't replace your prescription — they help it work.
