Aldosterone, 24 Hour Urine Test at Home in Dubai
Included
About the Test
This test measures how much aldosterone your body excretes in urine collected over a full 24-hour period. Aldosterone is a hormone from the adrenal glands that controls sodium, potassium and fluid balance, and therefore blood pressure. Because a single blood reading fluctuates through the day, the 24-hour urine collection gives a steadier picture, and it is usually ordered when doctors are investigating hard-to-control high blood pressure or unexplained low potassium.
What is it? A timed 24-hour urine test that measures total aldosterone output, used to assess adrenal hormone production affecting blood pressure and electrolytes.

How to prepare for the Aldosterone, 24 Hour Urine test
No fasting is needed. This is a 24-hour urine collection, so you gather all urine over a full day into the container provided; our team explains the timing and handling before your appointment. Salt intake, posture and several blood-pressure medications can affect aldosterone, so tell your doctor about your medicines and follow any instructions they give beforehand.
Understanding your Aldosterone, 24 Hour Urine results
Higher-than-expected aldosterone can point to adrenal overproduction, while low levels may relate to adrenal insufficiency or other causes; results are read together with renin, potassium and your medications. Always review your report with a doctor before drawing conclusions.
