Treatment for Stage 4 CKD in Membranous Nephropathy

Membranous nephropathy is a kind of glomerulonephritis. As renal function declines progressively, chronic kidney disease (CKD) will be the result. A person with stage 4 CKD has severe kidney damage. Without effective treatment, end stage renal disease (ESRD) will come soon, which will require dialysis. What is the treatment for stage 4 CKD in membranous nephropathy to stop further renal function decline?

Stage 4 CKD in membranous nephropathy

Membranous nephropathy can be primary or secondary to other diseases and condition. However, the general cause is immune disorder.

Immune system is a protective system of the body against outside harmful substances. However, in Membranous Nephropathy, the immune system fails to function adequately, causing excessive antibodies to produce in blood. The antibodies combine with antigens to form immune complexes in blood. With blood circulation, the immune complexes will enter kidneys. The immune complexes can attack the epithelial cells of glomeruli, impairing their barrier function. As a result, the proteins will pass through glomeruli, ending up in urine.

In membranous nephropathy induced stage 4 CKD, a large part of glomeruli become impaired and even necrotic. As the kidneys are impaired significantly, the patients usually experience a host of discomforts and complications like heart problem, swelling, nausea and vomiting and so froth.

Treatment for stage 4 CKD in membranous nephropathy

To treat stage 4 CKD in membranous nephropathy, no more damage to kidneys will occur if the immune system can recover normal. Further, to improve renal function, a treatment should be used to reverse kidney damage.

The combined treatment of immunotherapy and Micro-Chinese Medicines Osmotherapy can help the patients attain the above treatment goals. If you want to know how the treatments work to improve renal function, you can email to kidneycares@hotmail.com  for more information.

The above treatments can control stage 4 CKD in membranous nephropathy fundamentally. Hence, ESRD will be prevented.
