A member asked:
Is a low bun/creatinine ratio (8.3) something to worry about if bun is at 8 mg/dl and creatinine is at 0.96 mg/dl, both within the normal range?

No need to worry: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Having said that, your result are in the normal range.
