Description
A 24-hour urine chloride test measures the amount of chloride, an electrolyte, excreted in your urine over a 24-hour period. It helps assess kidney function and detect electrolyte imbalances, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions like dehydration, kidney disorders, and adrenal gland issues.
For adults, the typical range for 24-hour urine chloride is 110 to 250 mEq/24 hours, but this can vary slightly between laboratories.
