Questions about this test
Should I take my blood pressure tablets on the day of the test?
Usually yes, but check with your doctor. Do not skip or change medicines on your own.
Why are kidney tests part of a hypertension profile?
High blood pressure can damage the kidneys, and kidney disease can raise blood pressure. Checking both helps guide care.
