How to lower high creatinine level in hypertensive nephropathy?

High blood pressure is a leading cause of Kidney Disease. If your father’s kidney problem is caused by Hypertension, it is called Hypertensive Nephropathy. To find the management to lower high creatinine levels, we should find the cause of it.

Creatinine is the byproducts of muscle metabolism, which will be removed out of the blood by kidneys. For patients with damaged kidneys, the creatinine build up in the blood for kidney function decline.

Dialysis is a good choice to take away the creatinine in blood. However, as dialysis cannot work in patients for 24 hours everyday, it can only remove a part of creatinine. And when it stops, the creatinine builds up again. This is why many patients feel the relapse of high creatinine level after dialysis.

Glad to hear that your father’s creatinine level lower down from 11 to 5. In my opinion, no matter what treatments your father takes, it could not be better than that his kidneys function improvement. As long as his kidneys work better, the creatinine will be lowered by his kidneys naturally. Kidneys are the natural “dialysis” who can work 24 hours a day.

Thereby, i suggest your father to take managements that help repair the damaged kidney tissues and improve kidney functions. Chinese Herbal Medicine and Immunotherapy can be optional choice for him, in the view of this point.

Besides his high creatinine levels, you are suggested to care more about your father’s heart problem and diabetes. Diabetes affects kidneys, too and also it may cause damaged to other physical system, such as visual system, digestive system and skin system etc. Heart failure is the common but severe complication of Hypertensive Nephropathy. It is more dangerous than kidney disease itself to end one’s life. So the treatment for your father should involve blood sugar, creatinine build up and heart health meantime.

This is just a simple rough analysis, for further detailed suggestions, hope you can send his medical report to me. CONTACT EMAIL: kidneyservice@hotmail.com
