Brief Answer:
Kidnets not working properly

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Normal levels of creatinine in the blood are approximately 0.5 to 1.1 milligrams per deciliter in adult females.

You have a high creatnine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level which means your your kidneys aren't working well and kidneys are falling fast.

Your creatinine level may temporarily increase if you're dehydrated, have a low blood volume, eat a large amount of meat or take certain medications.

You need to take low salt and protein diet and have foods that contain rich vitamin A, vitamin B2 and vitamin C and take atleast 4 litres of liquids per day.

I will also advise you to do CT scan of kidney, ureter and bladder KUB) region.

You can also take Ketosteril tablets with your doctors advise.

It is used for preventing and treating renal damages due to protein metabolism disorder in chronic kidney disease(CKD).

Brief Answer:
prevents chronic kidney disease.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Ketosteril tablets supply necessary amino acid, improve the metabolism of proteinuria, reduce the resistance to insulin, improve the metabolism of sugar, improve the activity of lipoidase, improve the metabolism of fat, decrease the high phosphorus in blood, improve the low calcium in blood, deduce the secretion of protein and thus prevent development of chronic kidney disease.

It can also utilize the urea in unessential amino acid which is acquired from foods thus reducing the synthesis of urea nitrogen in body. Therefore, it can reduce the metabolic products in blood and slow down kidney disease progression.
