What Do We Need to Do to Avoid Dialysis for Patients with Creatinine 400

“What do we need to do to avoid the dialysis of my father? He is 52 years old and his creatinine is 400 already.” Creatinine 400 is far beyond the normal range (59-104 μmol/L), which means the kidneys have been impaired to certain extent. When creatinine level is as high as 500, dialysis is usually needed to expel waste from the blood.

You need to drink plenty of water

Creatinine is passed out of the body with urine. Plenty of water intake increases your urine output so as to help you remove creatinine and some other waste from your body. But the precondition is that you still have normal urine output and you do not have severe edema.

You need to strengthen immune system.

A strong immune system can help you resist diseases, such as cold and infection. In the daily, doing some gentle exercise regularly helps strengthen immune system. Avoid strenuous activity, such as football and basketball. Because they may raise creatinine level.

You need to limit the intake of salt.

Too much intake of salt retains water in the body, and increases the workload of kidneys so that creatinine level will increase further. Therefore, you need to limit the intake of salt and food high in salt, such as pickles and canned food.

You need to follow a low protein diet.

Some protein can cause further increase of creatinine like meat, so you had better control the intake of meat and add more fruits and vegetables into your diet. How much protein you can take depends on your medical condition and high quality protein is preferred, such as egg white and lean meat.

You also need to repair the damaged kidneys.

Conventional treatment is just to control symptoms, so you need to try some new treatment. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is one of them. It is anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation, blood vessels dilation and extracellular matrix degradation, which helps you repair the damaged kidneys and improve kidney function. And then your creatinine level lowers.
