A urine sodium of 177 can be impacted by nutrition, hydration, and renal function in addition to Sulisent, while a pee spot protein of 18 indicates minor protein leakage. For correlation with blood tests (creatinine, eGFR) and to determine whether to continue or modify Sulisent, please visit your physician.
