Drugs that Decrease Proteinuria in Diabetic Kidney Disease

Diabetic Kidney Disease or Diabetic Nephropathy, is a complication of diabetes that is caused by uncontrolled high blood sugar. Proteinuria is a typical and serious symptom of this kidney disease. What drugs can help decrease proteinuria in Diabetic Kidney Disease patient?

Drugs for proteinuria

In mild or temporary proteinuria, no treatment may be necessary.

Drugs are sometimes prescribed, especially in people with diabetes and/or high blood pressure. These may come from two classes of drugs:

1. ACE inhibitors (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors)

2. ARBs (angiotensin receptor blockers)

These two types of drugs are usually used to control high blood pressure. They also have the effect of reducing protein leakage in the urine. Consult your GP for the right dosage of these medicines. You can also ask help from our doctors online.

Points to remember

1. You should limit your intake of protein. The recommended amount of protein is 0.6 grams to 0.8 grams per kg of body weight per day. Two thirds of protein intake should come from high-protein sources, like fish, milk, egg white and lean meat.

2. Loose your weight is necessary

3. Control your blood glucose and blood pressure

Treatment for Diabetic Kidney Disease

Reducing proteinuria is not enough for people with Diabetic Kidney Disease, even though it is helpful.

The root cause of all the symptoms of Diabetic Nephropathy is the damaged renal tissues. As long as medicines or therapies can help enhance kidney function, excessive wastes and toxins can be filtered.

In that case, I recommend you to take Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. It is new treatment for kidney disease and has been mainly used in our hospital, Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital. Nearly 30 years of clinic practices prove it to be very natural and effective for Diabetic Nephropathy.
