Description
Neurotransmitters + UDH I
Neurotransmitters + UDH II is an advanced urine test panel that evaluates metabolites of key neurotransmitters including serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine, GABA, glutamate, and histamine, combined with urinary dopamine 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA) measurements to provide a detailed assessment of dopamine metabolism and overall nervous system function.
This panel helps identify neurotransmitter imbalances and dopamine pathway alterations linked to neurological, psychiatric, and neurodegenerative disorders. It is useful for patients with mood disorders, ADHD, Parkinson’s disease, chronic fatigue, or sleep disturbances. The test guides personalized treatment strategies involving nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle changes aimed at restoring neurotransmitter balance and optimizing dopamine metabolism.
