What Is an LDH Test?

A lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) test is a medical diagnostic test that measures the level of the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase in your blood sample. It helps detect tissue or cell damage somewhere in your body, acting as a general marker of injury or disease.

Frequently asked questions

There is no specific best time to take an LDH test. You can have this test done at any time of the day as instructed by your doctor, since it doesn't require fasting or special timing considerations.

No, fasting is generally not required for a standalone LDH test. However, if your LDH test is part of a larger panel requiring fasting, you'll need to follow those specific instructions, typically 8-12 hours.

Yes, severe dehydration can lead to a blood concentration, which may falsely elevate LDH levels. It's advisable to stay well-hydrated before your test unless your doctor instructs otherwise for specific medical reasons.

No special diet is needed before an LDH test. However, inform your doctor about all medications, vitamins, and supplements you're taking, as certain drugs like statins and aspirin can affect LDH levels.
