What a high Chloride means, and common causes

Chloride is above range. It usually moves with sodium, so the two are read together.

Common causes: Dehydration, kidney disease, metabolic acidosis, and excessive saline infusion.

What a low Chloride means, and common causes

Chloride is below range, which often accompanies low sodium or a loss of stomach acid.

Common causes: Prolonged vomiting, diuretic medicines, heart failure, chronic lung disease, and adrenal insufficiency.
