Urine protein - 24 hour

There are no risks.

Healthy people may exceed normal protein excretion levels after strenuous exercise or with dehydration. Some foods may affect protein levels.

Drugs that can cause increased excretion levels include acetaminophen, antibiotics, gentamicin, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (when associated with analgesic nephropathy).
