What is the bilirubin level in jaundice?

In jaundice, bilirubin levels typically exceed 2.5 to 3.0 mg/dL, leading to the yellowing of the skin and eyes. Elevated bilirubin can result from various causes, including liver disease, hemolysis, or bile duct obstruction. The specific level can vary depending on the underlying condition and its severity. Monitoring bilirubin levels is crucial for diagnosing and managing the underlying causes of jaundice.
