Calculator

Enter random urine values (mg/dL). The calculator returns UPCR and an estimated 24-hour urine protein using the legacy equation on this page.

mg/dL
mg/dL
Common threshold: UPCR ≥ 0.3
Formulas (as used by this calculator)

UPCR = urine protein (mg/dL) ÷ urine creatinine (mg/dL)

Estimated 24-hour urine protein (mg) = 1373.5 × UPCR − 60.5083

Note: The estimate equation is preserved from the legacy page. If you want to change or validate this regression against a specific source, tell me what reference you want to use and I’ll update the equation accordingly.
