Anti-CCP Price in Bangladesh

What is Anti-CCP?

The Anti-CCP (Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide) antibody test detects the presence of autoantibodies that target citrullinated proteins, which are commonly found in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A positive result is highly suggestive of RA, especially when combined with clinical symptoms like joint pain and swelling.

Anti-CCP antibodies are considered more specific for RA than other rheumatoid markers, such as rheumatoid factor (RF). The test is performed with a blood sample, and the risks are minimal, typically limited to slight discomfort during the blood draw.

Elevated levels can help confirm a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis and predict disease severity.

What to expect & how to prepare

Anti-CCP is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your Anti-CCP result rather than self-diagnosing.
