A 32-year-old patient with IgA nephropathy came in worried because his creatinine was normal, but his urine showed protein leak. Like most people, he had already Googled, tried random supplements, and felt confused. Instead of overcomplicating things, we focused on a simple, evidence-based plan — an ACE inhibitor to reduce pressure in the kidneys, an SGLT2 inhibitor for long-term protection, and later targeted therapy where appropriate. Over the next few months, his protein levels improved, his kidney function stayed stable, and most importantly, his anxiety reduced because he finally understood his condition and trusted the process. This is what actually works — not shortcuts, but consistent, science-based steps.

Are ayurvedic suppliments like Renogrit/Neeri KFT safe in CKD?

Hi I am Ashima currently living in Germany. Worried for someone close as his gfr dropped down a bit since 2022 and now is further reduced as he started dapagliflozin. He is having CKD stage 2. Lets see how much time it will take to get the gfr stabilised.

Hello doctor For 35 years old guy, with single kidney since he was 5 years old. Now with medicines and all gfr stable around 64-65 and creatinine ranging 1.27-1.42. Protein found in urine in 2024. In december 2025, got the uacr done, it was 49 mg/g Hba1c -5.3 Last time in february, we did blood test and the potassium was high -5.8. This is only the first time his potassium was high otherwise always in the range of 4.4-4.7. He is also on telmisartan since 10-12 years. The nephro put him on dapagliflozin since beginning of september,2025. Little anxious because of the high potassium numbers and for kidney too!
