What should my Urine Creatinine be?

Hello,

I'm wondering if someone can kindly tell me what my urine (not blood) creatinine result should be please? (Using an NHS lab in the UK)

Thank you so much anyone

Hello briskate,

Typically your creatinine level is looked at from a blood test called serum creatinine and is typically part of routine bloodwork. However, creatinine can be looked at from your urine, but requires a 24 hour urine collection and is called creatinine clearance. You would need to ask your physician what your creatinine clearance should be for you, since the "normal range" can vary depending on a lot of factors.
