The uric acid test will be done if the doctor observes any symptoms that indicate kidney stones. Some common symptoms are:

• Frequent urge to urinate
• Painful urination
• Bloody urine
• Foul smelling urine
• Backache
• Pain in the abdomen
• Groin ache
• Nausea or vomiting

The uric acid test is done to check the levels of uric acid in the blood, and will be prescribed if there are symptoms of high levels. These symptoms are:

• Restricted movement and swelling in the toes, ankles, and knees
• Joint pain
• Reddish skin around the joints

People who are undergoing treatment for cancer must get their uric acid levels tested frequently. Chemotherapy and other treatments release purine into the blood, causing the uric acid levels to increase. Frequent tests help to keep a check on the levels, and take necessary action if the levels are abnormal.

You do not have to make any preparations before the uric acid test. Drinking alcohol before the test or taking a medicine like aspirin and ibuprofen can influence the test results. Inform the doctor about these before the test.

During the Uric Acid Test

The uric acid test is a simple blood test and once the booking has been made with PharmEasy Labs, a phlebotomist will be assigned to collect the sample from you. Arriving at your location at the specified date and time, they collect the blood in a hygienic manner. The vein finder device is useful to locate the suitable vein in the forearm to draw blood from. Patient safety is maintained as the phlebotomists use sterilised disposable needles and gloves. The test will be done in 5 to 10 minutes.
