How to Bring Down High BUN 145
Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) is one indicator of kidney function, just like serum creatinine level. Regardless of other causes, high BUN 145 means kidneys have been damaged severely. In China, BUN higher than 60 mg/dl is one index to determine patients’ kidney disease has progressed into end stage. Therefore, it is a must to bring down high BUN 145 timely and effectively.
If high BUN 145 is accompanied by low kidney function less than 15% and other complications, doctors may suggest patients to begin dialysis. The main dialysis work is to replace damaged kidney cells to remove extra fluid, waste products and toxins, especially small molecular substances, while urea is just small molecular.
Therefore, dialysis has a quick and obvious effect on lowering high BUN level. If dialysis treatment is inadequate, BUN level may still stay in the high level. However, dialysis can’t do all of kidneys’ works and it may cause some side effects easily, so many patients would like to avoid dialysis.
Is there other therapy to bring down high BUN level? Similar to dialysis, Blood Purification can also help cleanse the blood, but it can do more than dialysis, because this therapy can remove various sizes of waste products and toxins instead of only small molecular substance. In view of this, blood purification can cleanse the blood more thoroughly.
If patients want to live with their own kidneys, some alternative therapies are also needed such as Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, Immunotherapy and Clear Blood Pollution Therapy. These therapies can help not only cleanse the blood but also repair damaged but not necrotic kidney cells. Finally, a part of kidney cells can recover to work again. As long as kidney function is higher than 15% and maintains stable, patients don’t need to accept dialysis.
The treatment option changes from person to person, and only depending on high BUN level can’t determine the treatment plan. Therefore, we need to know more about patients’ illness condition to give more detailed treatment option.
