There is no definite value of BUN that would diagnose kidney failure. BUN and creatinine tests can be used together to find the BUN-to-creatinine ratio (BUN:creatinine), which is more specific than the BUN test alone.
The normal ratio range for the BUN to creatinine is commonly between 10:1 and 20:1. To maintain a normal BUN: Cr ratio you may have to take medication or to alter your diet. A normal level is important to avoid kidney related diseases. For overall healthy kidney ensure that you keep your cholesterol, sodium, potassium, and protein in check.
This is known as the BUN/Creatinine ratio. Creatinine is a waste product from your muscles that is also filtered by your kidneys. Like BUN, high levels of creatinine could mean there is a lot of waste product that hasn’t been removed by the kidneys. The ideal ratio of BUN to creatinine falls between 10-to-1 and 20-to-1.
