Serum Uric Acid Price in Bangladesh

What is Serum Uric Acid?

The Serum Uric Acid test measures the amount of uric acid in the blood, used to diagnose gout, kidney stones, and certain metabolic disorders. Preparation usually requires fasting for 4–6 hours.

During the test, a blood sample is drawn from a vein, which takes only a few minutes. Risks are minimal, with slight pain or bruising at the site.

High uric acid levels may indicate gout, kidney issues, or dehydration, while low levels could suggest malnutrition or Wilson’s disease. Interpretation should be done by a healthcare provider, considering symptoms and other medical conditions.

What to expect & how to prepare

Serum Uric Acid is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your Serum Uric Acid result rather than self-diagnosing.
