A Uric Acid Test measures the levels of uric acid in your blood or urine. Uric acid is a waste product formed from the breakdown of purines, substances found in certain foods and drinks. Normally, it is dissolved in the blood, filtered by the kidneys, and excreted in urine. High levels of uric acid can indicate conditions like gout, kidney stones, or other kidney-related issues. The test helps in diagnosing and monitoring these conditions. It requires a simple blood draw or a 24-hour urine collection.
