Are you experiencing symptoms of an aldosterone imbalance? High blood pressure, low potassium levels, or fluid retention? The ALDOSTERONE PLASMA Test offered by DNA Labs UAE can help diagnose and manage these medical conditions.

Test Details

The aldosterone plasma test is a medical test used to measure the level of aldosterone in the blood. Aldosterone is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands that helps regulate blood pressure and electrolyte balance.

The test is typically ordered if a person is experiencing symptoms of an aldosterone imbalance, such as high blood pressure, low potassium levels, or fluid retention. It can also be used to diagnose conditions such as primary aldosteronism, adrenal insufficiency, or Addison’s disease.
