What's the Effect of Ketosteril for Renal Failure

Is Ketosteril effective for patients with Renal Failure? Is there side effects if taking it for long time? Can Ketoseril lower serum creatinine? This article talks about the effect of Ketosteril in treating Renal Failure. Hope it can help.

Ketosteril is a kind of compound medicine contains one kind of hydroxyl calcium, four kinds of ketone calcium and five kinds of amino acid. It is often used for patients whose GFR is lower than 25ml/min. Recently people pay more attention to dietary therapy in slowing down the progressing of chronic kidney failure. Therefore, the Kidney Disease Association of The United States, protein nutrition experts for kidney disease in China and kidney disease guidelines all recommend Ketosteril and low protein diet as important measures for treating kidney disease. It is used for kidney damage due to protein metabolism disorders.

According to the ultrafiltration theory, protein intake seems the main reason that causes further decline of kidney function. Nearly all the patients with Chronic Renal Failure have protein and amino acid disorders and negative nitrogen balance. Therefore, limiting protein intake is an important part of conservative therapy for Chronic Renal Failure. While protecting the kidney function, Ketosteril and low protein diet can correct sugar metabolism disorders from various aspects so as to avoid the aggravation of kidney disease. It can also correct lipid metabolic disorder and slow down the progressing of Renal Failure.

However, taking Ketosteril for long time can lead to Hypercalcemia. Ketosteril also contains phenylalanine, so patients with genetic benzene acetone urine should be careful when taking this medicine. When hypercalcemia happens continuously, patients have to reduce the dose of Ketosteril and the intake of other calcareous foods and vitamin D.

For patients with Chronic Kidney Failure, Ketosteril can effectively lower serum creatinine. However, it is lowering the creatinine by intestinal detoxification, but not repairing the kidneys and recover its own function of detoxification. It cannot achieve the purpose of treating the kidney disease. In order to treat Chronic Renal Failure fundamentally, we have to start from the root cause. We suggest patients use combined therapy of both Chinese medicine and western medicine. Protect the remaining kidney function and prevent the further progressing of the disease. Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital use Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy to repair the renal intrinsic cells, rebuild original structure of the kidneys and effectively block the renal fibrosis. In this way, the kidney function will be recovered and the creatinine level will naturally come down.
