Causes of jaundice vary from non-serious to potentially fatal. Levels of bilirubin in bloodare normally below 1.0 mg/dL (17 µmol/L) and levels over 2–3 mg/dL (34-51 µmol/L) typically results in jaundice. High bilirubin is divided into two types: unconjugated (indirect) and conjugated (direct).Conjugated bilirubin can be confirmed by finding bilirubin in the urine.Other conditions that can cause yellowish skin but are not jaundice include carotenemia from eating large amounts of certain foods and medications like rifampin.
