The presence of glucose in the urine is called glycosuria or glucosuria.See also:Glucose test - bloodGlucose test - CSFHome glucose monitoringAlternative NamesUrine sugar test; Urine glucose test; Glucosuria testHow the test is performedA urine sample is needed. For information on collecting a urine sample, see clean catch urine specimen.Usually, the health care provider checks for glucose in the urine sample using a dipstick made with a color-sensitive pad. The pad contains chemicals that react with glucose. The color that the dipstick changes tells the provider how much glucose is in your urine.How to prepare for the testYour health care provider may tell you to stop taking drugs that may affect the results of the test.Drugs that may increase urine glucose measurements include:Aminosalicylic acidCephalosporinsChloral hydrateChloramphenicolDextrothyroxineDiazoxideDiuretics (loop and thiazides)EstrogensIfosfamideIsoniazidLevodopaLithiumNafcillinNalidixic acidNicotinic acid (large doses)Other drugs also can cause false negative or false positive results, depending on the type of test strip used. Talk to your doctor.How the test will feelThe test involves only normal urination, and there is no discomfort.Why the test is performedThis test is most commonly used to screen for diabetes.Normal ValuesGlucose is not usually found in urine.
