Many patients with nephropathy have high creatinine and want to use some methods to lower creatinine. They think of what special medicines can be used to quickly reduce creatinine and regard lowering creatinine as the purpose of diagnosing and treating kidney disease, but is lowering creatinine really the ultimate goal of diagnosing and treating kidney disease? Not, lowering creatinine is just a process of diagnosis and treatment of kidney disease.
creatinine is a metabolic waste of the human body, mainly produced by muscle tissue metabolism, 99% of which are excreted through the kidneys, so the increase in creatinine represents the decrease in glomerular filtration rate and impaired renal function. The most common causes of elevated creatinine are glomerulonephritis , hypertensive renal damage, diabetic nephropathy , IgA nephropathy and immune system diseases , and kidney damage caused by tumors.
Normal value of creatinine:
generally 50-110 μmol/L for men;
generally 40-100 μmol/L for women;
elderly people serum creatinine is upper limit, generally required to be reduced to 88.4 μmol/L for over 65 years old.
The normal value of creatinine has a range. If you exceed the range, you need to lower creatinine. What medicine can you take to lower creatinine? In fact, there are no special medicines for lowering creatinine. Drugs that directly lower creatinine, such as charcoal tablets, uremia , kidney failure, etc., are not very effective. These drugs cannot restore kidney damage, renal function will continue to progress and creatinine will increase. If the progress continues, it will still be uremia .
So what can we control creatinine?
1. Actively diagnose and treat primary diseases that cause elevated creatinine, control blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids, within the normal range, and at the same time, use glucocorticoid drugs to eliminate kidney damage under the guidance of a doctor.
2. Pay attention to rest in daily life, eat reasonably, have a low-salt and high-quality protein diet, eat less animal fat, and eat carbohydrate appropriately to ensure caloric intake.
3. It is necessary to remove adverse factors that affect renal function, such as infection, and follow the doctor's advice to fight the infection. Correct the deficiency of blood volume. Stabilize the environment in the human body and prevent hyperkalemia . Avoid the use of renal toxic drugs, such as aminoglycoside antibiotics , nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and traditional Chinese medicine Guanmutong , etc.
4. The diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine mainly uses some drugs that protect kidney function for diagnosis and treatment. Find an experienced Chinese medicine doctor for dialectical treatment, and then use drugs for diagnosis and treatment.
0 good kidney function serum creatinine will naturally not be high. Increased blood creatinine is a problem with the kidneys. Renal function is degraded. If you do not actively look for the pathogenic factors of the kidneys and do not start from the root cause to diagnose and treat kidney diseases, and protect the kidney by "lowering creatinine" will not put the cart before the horse. The best way to lower creatinine is to cure kidney disease or stabilize the condition, so that creatinine will naturally drop.
