Doctors prescribe the Kidney Function Test when symptoms suggest renal impairment, such as swelling in the limbs, fatigue, or changes in urine output. It's also crucial for those with conditions like hypertension or diabetes that increase the risk of kidney disease. Moreover, the test is recommended for ongoing monitoring of kidney health in patients undergoing treatment with medications that may affect renal function, ensuring that any necessary adjustments in therapy can be made promptly.

A Kidney function test requires a blood sample to check for the various components. Fasting is not required before giving the blood sample. Before taking the test, inform your doctor about all ongoing medications, vitamins, and supplements.

During the Kidney Function Test

During the Kidney Function Test, PharmEasy's skilled phlebotomists utilise advanced vein finders to efficiently and accurately determine the best venipuncture sites. This technology enhances the precision of the process, supporting a smooth and efficient sample collection.

The normal values, parameters, and reference ranges of the tests may vary from lab to lab. Please refer to the ranges mentioned in the report and consult a doctor to understand the interpretation of lab reports.

If the values of the RFT tests are higher or lower than the normal range, it means that there is an underlying renal disease condition. The results of each test help the doctor to get a better picture of the overall health of the kidneys. Having an abnormal RFT value in just one of the components of the renal function test may not confirm a kidney disease. The test results of RFT are to be matched with the patient's medical history and health status.
