What Does the Lipase Lab Test Measure?

With this blood test, lipase levels are measured to ensure they fall within normal ranges.

  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Abdominal pain
  • Fever
  • Racing heart rate
  • Swelling in the stomach area
  • Diarrhea

Lipase Blood Work Preparation

No special preparation is necessary for the lipase test, although your doctor may recommend fasting in the 8-12 hours before your test. Check with your lab if you have any questions.

Lipase Blood Test Results

Ideal lipase levels don’t go higher than 160 units per liter (U/L). You may need further testing if your results come back at an undesirable level.
