The Ispaghula (Psyllium) Seed Allergy Test is a blood test that checks for allergic sensitization to psyllium, a fiber supplement and food thickener. It is ordered when a person has symptoms such as hives, wheezing, or digestive upset after exposure to psyllium products.

What it measures

Specific IgE to Ispaghula (Psyllium) Seed — Measures the amount of allergy-related antibody in your blood that binds to psyllium proteins.
Total IgE — Sometimes included to show your overall allergy antibody level, though it does not diagnose a specific allergy.
Serum IgE control — A lab check to confirm the test worked properly.

Who it is for

This test is typically ordered by an allergist or primary care clinician for people who suspect a reaction to psyllium-containing products, such as fiber powders or laxatives.

Preparation

No fasting or special preparation is needed. You can eat and drink normally before the blood draw.
