What is Urine Color Guide for Dehydration about?
Dark yellow urine is an indicator of dehydration as the kidneys conserve water by making urine more concentrated. The aim is to produce urine no darker than color 3 on the urine color chart. Urine darker than color 3 or urinating less than twice per day indicates severe dehydration requiring immediate fluid intake. The urine color should be compared to the chart, with colors 1-3 considered well hydrated. Certain medicines may alter urine color so the test is unreliable in those cases.
