Please find my observations below.

2. Serum creatinine also shows the kidney function and has a normal range up to 1.4 mg/ dL in most laboratories
3. The values urea 89 (?mg/ dL) and creatinine 7 (?mg/ dL) are much above normal and might indicate reduced kidney function. Please compare with normal range as described by laboratory in the report.
4. Additional details on patient symptoms and diagnosis with names of medication prescribed is required to discuss in detail.
