The Amylase Blood Test from Repose Healthcare is a convenient at-home test that measures the level of amylase enzyme in your blood. Amylase is produced primarily by the pancreas and salivary glands and plays a vital role in digesting carbohydrates.
Abnormal amylase levels may indicate problems with the pancreas, salivary glands, digestive system, or metabolic health. Measuring amylase is often used to help detect and monitor pancreatitis, digestive conditions, or blockages in the pancreas or bile ducts.
Amylase is a digestive enzyme that breaks down starch into sugars, making it essential for proper digestion. It is secreted into the saliva and pancreas. Most of the amylase in your blood comes from the pancreas.
Normal amylase levels help maintain healthy digestion, but abnormally high or low levels may point to underlying medical conditions.
An Amylase Test may be recommended if you experience symptoms such as:
Severe abdominal pain
Nausea or vomiting
Loss of appetite
Swollen or tender abdomen
Fever with abdominal discomfort
Your doctor may also recommend amylase testing to monitor pancreatic disorders or if you have a history of alcohol-related pancreatitis or gallstones.
High amylase levels may be associated with:
Acute pancreatitis (sudden inflammation of the pancreas)
Chronic pancreatitis (long-term pancreatic inflammation)
Pancreatic cancer
Gallstones or bile duct obstruction
Gastroenteritis or digestive infections
Kidney disease (reduced clearance of amylase)
Low amylase levels may be linked to:
Pancreatic insufficiency
Cystic fibrosis
Severe liver disease
Advanced chronic pancreatitis
Measuring amylase alongside lipase often gives a clearer picture of pancreatic health.
