My bun to creatinine ratio is 5.7 to 1. what does this mean? is this a cause for concern? my bun is 6.95 mg/dl and my creatinine is 1.29 mg/dl.

Depends: Normal serum creatinine ranges from 0.7- 1.5 mg /dl in many labs, however one should review the normal range in their lab report. BUN ranges from 6 to 20 mg/dl. High serum creatinine and BUN generally indicate kidney damage.Your labs are normal, however review the lab report with md.
