Dehydration can lead to hyperchloremia, which is an elevated level of chloride in the blood, due to a decrease in the overall volume of body fluids. When dehydration occurs, the concentration of electrolytes, including chloride, increases as there is less water to dilute them. Additionally, the kidneys may retain more chloride to help maintain electrolyte balance in response to reduced fluid volume. This combination of concentrated chloride and potential renal retention contributes to hyperchloremia during dehydration.

What does it mean if your chloride is 109 in a blood test?
A chloride level of 109 in a blood test may indicate hyperchloremia, which could be caused by dehydration, kidney problems, certain medications, or metabolic acidosis. It is important to discuss these results with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.
How do carbonic anhydrase inhibitors cause hyperchloremia?
It causes a non-anion gap metabolic acidosis. As the negative bicarb is ridded by the kidney, another anion needs to fill its place in the serum, and this is done by Cl.
