Chloride is best interpreted as part of an electrolyte panel.
Chloride is a laboratory test that measures a result in a Blood (Serum) sample. It may be ordered to investigate symptoms, support a diagnosis or monitor a condition, depending on your clinician's advice.
The current booking price is shown at Rs. 203 against an MRP of Rs. 255, inclusive of taxes where applicable.
No fasting is required for this test alone. If another test in the same order requires fasting, follow its preparation instructions. Home sample collection is available in serviceable cities. A trained phlebotomist collects the sample using sterile equipment, and the report is shared online after processing.
