Benefits of Ketosteril 600 mg for Kidney Disease Patients
Along with a low-protein diet, ketosteril 600 mg may be recommended for kidney disease patients when their glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is less than 25 ml/min. One famous effect of ketosteril as we know is lowering high creatinine level. Do you know other benefits of ketosteril for kidney patients?
Ketosteril is one medication that can provide more essential amino acids for patients and reduce the protein need from foods. Just because of this, this oral drug also brings some other benefits.
The first one is to correct the carbohydrate metabolism disorder, because ketosteril is taken accompanied by low-protein diet. This can reduce the waste products of protein metabolism and decline the burden on kidneys, so as to regulate carbohydrate metabolism.
The second one is to control blood sugar. Ketosteril is able to decrease insulin resistance that can help regulate blood sugar and increase patients’ energy. From this point, this medicine is suitable for patients whose Chronic Kidney Disease is caused by type 2 diabetes.
The third one is to control phosphorus level. The phosphorus in our body comes from foods what we eat, while phosphorus always exists in high-protein foods. When kidney patients follow a low-protein diet, their phosphorus intake declines naturally.
The last one is to ease patients’ uremic symptoms. Ketosteril increases the supplement of essential amino acids that can decline the formation of urea and deposits of uremic toxins. As the internal environment becomes relatively clean, patients’ symptoms and discomforts can be alleviated to some extent including reducing high creatinine and BUN level.
Although ketosteril can help manage kidney patients’ symptoms, it is unable to improve kidney function or repair damaged kidney cells. If you want to reverse your kidney damage, you should take some other systemic treatments such as Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy.
