Is Chronic Kidney Disease Reversible with Creatinine 4.3
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is one condition in which glomerular filtration rate (GFR) declines gradually. Creatinine 4.3 is more likely to indicate kidneys are damaged seriously. Is chronic kidney disease reversible with creatinine 4.3?
Serum creatinine level is used to measure the content of creatinine in the blood that can reflect how well kidneys are functioning. Normally, creatinine level in the blood ranges is lower than 1.5 mg/dl. If it is higher than the normal value, it must mean more than 50% of kidney function has been lost ruling out lifestyle changes, dehydration, heart problem and so on.
According to glomerular filtration rate (GFR), chronic kidney disease is divided into five stages. According to nephrologists, Stage 4 CKD is the last stage that can be reversed. Creatinine 4.3 may show stage 4 kidney disease. Hence, we can know chronic kidney disease with creatinine 4.3 is reversible.
As we know, the more seriously kidneys are damaged, the more difficult to reverse them, so it is not easy to reverse stage 4 chronic kidney disease and creatinine 4.3. To achieve them, the treatment should be able to have several therapeutic effects.
1. Manage the underlying causes: Many factors can cause chronic kidney disease. They are chronic hypertension, diabetes, environmental factors, infection, medications, and so on. Detect the underlying cause and manage it that can protect kidneys from further damage.
2. Cleanse the internal environment: Creatinine is one waste product generated from muscle metabolism. Only if the internal environment becomes clean, can creatinine, BUN and uric acid levels come down naturally.
3. Fix the impaired kidney cells: Although creatinine 4.3 is higher than the normal, it is still not life-threatening. That’s to say, a part of kidney cells are just damaged but not necrotic. Therefore, some medicines can help repair these cells and make them work again.
The above are the requirements of treatment to reverse CKD with creatinine 4.3. As for the detailed treatment plan, it should depend on patients’ illness condition. If you want to know a specialized treatment plan for you, you can contact us through emailing to kidneyservice@hotmail.com.
