Alcohol Profile
Share
This alcohol profile blood test checks for the following 5 markers:
- Alcohol Level - the amount of alcohol currently in the blood.
- Liver Function Test - checks the effect of alcohol misuse on the liver
- MCV - this level is high in alcohol misuse.
- CDT - checks for alcohol misuse over the past 7-14 days.
- PEth - checks for alcohol misuse over the past 21-28 days.
The Alcohol Profile blood test tells you if a person has been drinking too much alcohol and if there is any damage to the liver.
You will find that it is more cost-effective to do these tests together as a profile than to do them separately.
