    What Is an Interleukin 6 (IL-6) Test?

    The Interleukin 6 (IL-6) test measures the amount of IL-6 protein in your blood. IL-6 is a cytokine—a type of signaling molecule—that plays an important role in immune responses and inflammation.

    IL-6 levels can rise during infections, autoimmune disorders, and inflammatory conditions. This test helps assess inflammation severity and is particularly used in evaluating conditions like Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS), sepsis, and COVID-19 complications.

    Orange Health Labs offers convenient at-home collection for IL-6 testing with fast reporting.

    Who Should Get This Test?

    • Individuals with suspected sepsis, SIRS, or COVID-19 complications

    • Patients showing signs of systemic inflammation

    • Individuals being monitored for autoimmune disorders or cardiovascular risk

    During the Test:

    • A phlebotomist will draw a blood sample from your arm

    • The process takes less than five minutes and may involve mild discomfort

    After the Test:

    • The sample is sent to the lab for processing

    • Results are typically available within 48 to 168 hours

    Why Take an Interleukin 6 (IL-6) Test?

    IL-6 testing is typically used when additional insights into inflammation are needed—especially after a CRP test shows elevated values.

    Your doctor may recommend an IL-6 test if:

    • You have symptoms of a severe inflammatory condition or infection

    • You're being evaluated for COVID-19, sepsis, or autoimmune diseases

    • Other inflammatory markers like CRP need confirmation or elaboration

    It’s often used in critical care and emergency settings to predict complications and guide treatment.

    Interleukin 6 (IL-6) Test Results & Interpretation

    Interpreting IL-6 test results helps identify the presence and severity of inflammation.

    Normal Range:

    • Less than 5 pg/mL

    Higher values of IL-6 are associated with,

    • Systemic inflammation or immune activation

    • Increased risk of complications from sepsis, pneumonia, or COVID-19

    • Autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus

    Very high levels (>300 pg/mL) can indicate a serious risk of multiple organ dysfunction or mortality, especially in critically ill patients.

    This test is often performed alongside others like:

    • Complete Haemogram

    • CRP

    • Blood or Urine Culture

    Consult your doctor for interpretation and further action based on clinical condition.

    • Technicians are very prompt. Wide variety of tests offered. Results are quick (e.g. FBT results in 6 hrs), with all reports available centrally in an app. And, the smart uniforms of their technicians, )who are also skilled and courteous) brings a degree of professionalism unlike other service providers.

    • The best experience I have had in the last two weeks with multiple tests booked for different family members. From the moment I contacted them till the receipt of the results and re-bookings for follow up tests, everything was fantastic. Pls note the sample taking covered early morning visit, for a patient aged 90+!! Initially I had made the big mistake of contacting another big-noise, big-ad spending Lab service provider based on a Google search of a particular test resulting in its top of page listing, and was utterly disgusted with that Labs' service. I would fully recommend Orange for anyone - possibly any test, any age patient. Thank you Orange Labs.

    • Good experience everytime except one where phlebotomist didn't prick correctly. My wife had much pain even after few days and it looked like some clot had happened. But it was one in almost 20 visits. I would still recommend. One suggestion to Orange would be to keep Lithium tests within a day so we could get test results faster
