What Does The Following Blood Test Results Indicate?
Four months ago a blood test I had showed the following: Urea - 106mg/dl; creatinine - 1.6mg/dl and Uric acid 12.4mg/dl . three days ago I had another blood test which showed the following result: urea - 103mg/dl; creatinine - 1.4md/dl and uric acid 2.6. I am under some medications like dieretics(Urex Forte 250mg) and two other tablets to control my blood pressure, and warfarine (7.5mg). My doctor said that if my urea is at a high most probably the Urex Forte is responsible for it. Which is which? Is there a solution to control the Urea I my blood?

hi. urex forte is frusemide. u are taking very high dose of frusemide. such high dose of frusemide may cause many side effect like hyperuricemia, hypokalemia(decreased potassium) and hyponatremia(decreased sodium). such high doses of frusemide doses should be given for short period of time and under monitoring. yes urea can be increased because of frusemide. u should decrease the dose frusemide if u do not have edema or decreased urine output.
