Comprehensive Metabolic Panel

A Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) is a blood test that provides important information about your body’s chemical balance and metabolism. It measures various substances in your blood, including glucose (sugar), proteins, electrolytes (like sodium and potassium), and waste products like creatinine. This test helps assess how well your kidneys and liver are functioning, and can also give insights into your overall health, nutritional status, and how effectively your body is managing energy. Doctors often use the CMP to help diagnose conditions, monitor existing health issues, or evaluate the effects of medications.
