Creatinine is a waste product produced by the muscles that is filtered out of the blood by the kidneys. The eGFR calculation uses creatinine levels to estimate the kidney's ability to filter waste from the blood.

Calcium, chloride, magnesium, phosphate, potassium, sodium, and urea are essential electrolytes and chemicals that the kidneys help regulate. Imbalances in these electrolytes can indicate kidney dysfunction and have an impact on overall health.

Our Basic Kidney Health Panel is vital for individuals seeking to monitor their kidney function, detect early signs of kidney disease, or evaluate the effects of certain medications on kidney health.
