Ammonia Breath Test in Chandigarh – Advanced Diagnostic Care at Hospital Dr. Mohinish Chhabra

If you're experiencing digestive discomfort, unexplained bloating, or persistent stomach issues, you might be suffering from a condition like small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) or Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. One of the most effective and non-invasive ways to diagnose these conditions is through an Ammonia Breath Test.

At Hospital Dr. Mohinish Chhabra in Chandigarh, we offer state-of-the-art Ammonia Breath Testing to help identify bacterial overgrowth and other gastrointestinal disorders accurately.

What is an Ammonia Breath Test?

The Ammonia Breath Test is a simple, non-invasive diagnostic tool that measures the levels of ammonia in your breath. Elevated ammonia levels can indicate:

• Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)

• H. pylori infection

• Liver dysfunction (as ammonia is processed by the liver)

• Urea cycle disorders

This test helps doctors determine if excessive bacteria in your gut are producing ammonia, leading to digestive symptoms like bloating, gas, diarrhea, or abdominal pain.

3. Ingestion of Substrate: You’ll consume a small amount of a specific solution (like lactulose or urea).

4. Follow-up Samples: Additional breath samples are taken at regular intervals to measure ammonia levels.

5. Analysis: The samples are analyzed to detect abnormal bacterial activity.
