Urine Bilirubin
Urinary bilirubin indicates conjugated bilirubin spilling into urine and is normally absent. Its presence suggests hepatobiliary disease such as viral or drug-induced hepatitis, cirrhosis, or bile duct obstruction from stones or tumors. Because conjugated bilirubin appears in urine before jaundice is visible, it can offer early evidence of liver dysfunction.

Why Urine Bilirubin matters
Bilirubin in urine may indicate liver disease, bile duct obstruction, or hepatitis. Normally filtered by the liver, its presence in urine suggests the liver can't process it properly.
Which Providers Test Urine Bilirubin?
Empirical Health is both the cheapest ($190/year) and the most comprehensive (100+ biomarkers) panel that includes Urine Bilirubin.
4 panels that include it, cheapest first
