What is Adrenaline Epinephrine, Urine 24H?

This test measures the total amount of adrenaline (epinephrine) excreted in your urine over a 24-hour period. It provides a comprehensive look at your body's adrenaline production throughout a full day.

Why is this test important?

It's a valuable tool for diagnosing conditions like pheochromocytoma and other neuroendocrine tumors that can lead to excessive adrenaline release. This prolonged measurement offers more insight than a single blood sample.

How to Prepare

You will need to collect all urine passed over a 24-hour period. Specific instructions regarding diet, medications, and collection procedures will be provided.

Do I need to fast before my blood test?
