Commonly associated with
- Acute infection
- Medications
If your Monocytes (Absolute) is high
More monocytes than the range is commonly associated with chronic inflammation or recovery from infection.

Typical reference range
| Group | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Adults | 0.1 – 0.9 K/uL |
Typical adult values used by many US labs. Your own report prints the range your lab validated for its method, and that range is the one that counts. Labwise always uses the printed range first.
If it is within range
Your absolute monocyte count is within the range printed by your lab.
