C-peptide

0.5 to 2.0 ng/mL (nanograms per milliliter)

Normal ranges may differ by the laboratory of the health care provider.

Normal values in a patient requiring insulin injections indicate that the person's body is still producing some insulin. Normal values in a patient who has low blood sugar indicate that the patient is making too much insulin.

Low values (or no Insulin C-peptide) indicate that the person's pancreas is producing little or no insulin.
