The URINE POTASSIUM (SPOT) Test is a simple, non-invasive test that measures the amount of potassium in your urine at a specific moment in time. It is often used to diagnose or monitor kidney function and other conditions that affect the body's electrolyte balance.

During the URINE POTASSIUM (SPOT) Test, a sample of urine is collected and analyzed in a laboratory. The test measures the amount of potassium in the urine, which can provide important information about kidney function and overall health.

At MOHO, we partner with NPHL-approved path labs to ensure the highest quality and accuracy of URINE POTASSIUM (SPOT) Test results. We also provide free sample collection at home for your convenience, as well as free consultation with doctors to help you understand your test results.

The normal range for the URINE POTASSIUM (SPOT) Test varies depending on factors such as age, gender, and overall health. A healthcare provider can interpret the results and determine if any further testing or treatment is necessary.
