What is Chloride, Urine?

This urine test measures the amount of chloride excreted in your urine over a specific period, often 24 hours. It helps assess how well your kidneys are regulating fluid and electrolyte balance in your body.

Why is this test important?

Urine chloride levels can help diagnose conditions like kidney disorders, adrenal gland problems, or certain types of metabolic imbalances. It provides insight into the body's ability to conserve or excrete chloride.

How to Prepare

You may need to collect all urine over a 24-hour period. Follow specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
