New Treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease-Immunotherapy

A new treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease has been created on the basis of advanced medical technology, and that is Immunotherapy. As a genetic kidney disease, Polycystic Kidney Disease has deprived so many people's life and also afflict many young people by making them unable in giving birth to a healthy baby. Conventional treatments for Polycystic Kidney Disease are dialysis and kidney transplant which are generally applied when PKD progresses to Kidney Failure. However, as both dialysis and kidney transplant are torturous, expensive and risky, many PKD patients have strong resistance to these two treatments. Immunotherapy, as a new treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease, can help to solve many problems and the occurrence of it can help many PKD patients to avoid dialysis and transplant effectively.

Immunotherapy is the effective combination of Chinese medicines and western medicines. Chinese medicines and western medicines are applied to play different role in treating PKD, but both of them are indispensable. Polycystic Kidney Disease is marked by countless cysts with different sizes. These cysts enlarge over time and cause kidney damages directly. In Immunotherapy, Chinese medicines are used to shrink kidney cysts, which is very important for PKD patients to avoid further kidney damages and repair damaged renal tissues. However, it is not enough to just simply apply Chinese medicines. In order to receive a better result, we can also have the help of some western medicines like antihypertensive medicines and creatinine-lowering medicines. Western medicine show great effects in stopping kidney disease quickly, but they fail to present long-term treatment effects. On the basis of this, we can apply western medicines firstly and temporarily to stop Polycystic Kidney Disease and then utilize Chinese medicines to shrink kidney cyst as well as repair kidney damages. In this way, not only new kidney damages can be avoided by treatment of Immunotherapy, meanwhile kidney function can be increased to some extent.

As western medicines are used temporarily in Immunotherapy, no side effects are caused, so we need to worry about anything while treating Polycystic Kidney Disease with Immunotherapy. As a new treatment for PKD, Immunotherapy indeed shows great advantageous compared with conventional treatment. Hoping this new treatment can help more and more people to defeat Polycystic Kidney Disease.
