Angiotensin II
Angiotensin II is the active hormone of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). It is a potent vasoconstrictor and stimulates aldosterone release, raising blood pressure and conserving sodiu…

Also known as: angiotensin ii, angiotensin 2, ang ii, ang-ii, ang2, angiotenzin ii
Reference range: 10–60 pg/mL (Source: ABIM)
Standard unit: pg/mL
High values may indicate
High angiotensin II levels may indicate renovascular hypertension, heart failure, kidney disease, dehydration, or other causes of RAAS activation.
Low values may indicate
Low angiotensin II may indicate primary aldosteronism, use of ACE inhibitors or ARBs, or volume overload.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a normal Angiotensin II level?
- A typical reference range for Angiotensin II is 10–60 pg/mL (source: ABIM). Reference ranges vary by laboratory, age, and sex, so always compare against the range on your own lab report.
- What units is Angiotensin II measured in?
- Angiotensin II is most commonly reported in pg/mL. Labs in different countries may use other units — you can convert between them with BloodId's blood test unit converter.
- Where do Angiotensin II reference ranges come from?
- BloodId uses ABIM standard reference ranges and educational information from MedlinePlus (see our methodology). Reference ranges still vary by lab, age, and sex, so always compare against your own report.
- Can I track Angiotensin II over time?
- Yes. Upload results from any lab and BloodId charts your Angiotensin II over time against its reference range, so you can see whether the trend is rising, falling, or stable.
