FDA is notifying healthcare professionals about an association between oral sodium phosphates (OSPs) for bowel cleansing and a type of acute renal failure called acute phosphate nephropathy. These occurrences, which are rare but serious, have been associated with both OSP liquids such as Fleet Phospho-soda, and OSP tablets such as Visicol. Patients at increased risk of acute phosphate nephropathy include the elderly, those with kidney disease, dehydration or decreased intravascular volume, and those using drugs that affect renal perfusion or function. These include diuretics, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), and possibly NSAIDs. FDA is suggesting several precautions when choosing a bowel cleanser for patients. Here are a few of them: • Avoid using OSPs in patients with kidney disease, impaired renal function or perfusion, dehydration, or uncorrected electrolyte abnormalities including hyperphosphatemia. • Use OSPs with caution in patients taking diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or NSAIDs. • Instruct patients to take the correct OSP dose and drink sufficient quantities of fluids during bowel cleansing.

Chronic Kidney Disease Diet – A Controversial Diet To Reverse Chronic Renal Failure
July 13th, 2010Accepted by chronic kidney disease diet kidney disease diet RevealedChronic now has become so popular today simply because it has developed a tendency to be in many races around the world.
It is more common in those who come to the age of 60 years about 40%, but kidney failure can show people up to 20 years. Meeting with the youngest patient I’ve handled a teenager.
The frequency of chronic kidney disease increases to 25% over the previous decade. The increasing incidence of diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, weakness and aging population have led to this proliferation of renal failure. Centers for Disease Control stubborn that about twenty percent of all adults over 20 have chronic kidney disease. To put an expression tougher if you’re on a bus with nine other people, there is almost 1 in 5 chance you have to have signs of kidney failure. Now this is one of those times playing Russian roulette would seem strange for a better solution. Is not it scary? CDC also indicates that customers are more than 400,000 who have received dialysis or kidney transplants. This is a number that should increase over the next ten years as a lifestyle and diet today, John Doe is too much of what the body can cope. To make matters worse, more than 68.00 kidney patients die every year from complications of the disease. This is how it becomes controversial, chronic kidney disease diet is generally larger before having a kidney disease. It acts as a prophylactic measure in the care of their grain to make vigorous. Although, like most people, we only come to recognize the evil of our actions after it had cost. As a nurse, I have come across many patients who later come to regret the abuse did to their kidneys. Now the experience of chronic renal disease and must go on dialysis and waiting for a kidney transplant a week. Perhaps the best proof that nephrology has to offer kidney patients can be observed that the renal diet can be used as a supplement to pre-dialysis and pre-transplant therapy with high-protein diet low enough, hypertension, anemia and diabetes. Its effectiveness has been supported by a large number of research studies in the United States and the United Kingdom and has been shown to slow the progression of renal disease for hundreds of patients who have used this method before. As chronic kidney disease diet increasingly dear, we must evaluate your lifestyle and how you take care of your kidneys.

Hypertension and Renal Failure
July 3rd, 2010Hypertension is the second leading cause of kidney failure and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Blood pressure measures the force of blood against the walls of blood vessels. excess fluid in the body increases the amount of fluid in the blood vessels and makes blood pressure higher. Narrow, stiff, or clogged blood vessels also raise blood pressure.
High blood pressure makes the heart work harder and, over time, can damage blood vessels throughout the body. If the blood vessels of the kidneys are damaged, you may stop removing wastes and excess fluid from the body. The excess fluid in the blood vessels can increase blood pressure even more. It’s a dangerous cycle.
People with renal choose one of two options, or receive a kidney transplant or undergo regular cleansing treatments called dialysis blood. Both options offer no guarantee that the person will live a normal life. Dialysis is not a cure but a temporary solution for cleaning the blood and transplantation of a drug is necessary to adjust and there are other complications too. One of the things that can help avoid kidney failure is to keep blood pressure under control.
As for high blood pressure early renal disease is a silent problem and has no symptoms. People can have chronic renal failure, but somehow do not feel bad. glomerular filtration rate of a person (GFR) is a measure of how well the kidneys are filtering waste from the blood. GFR was estimated from a routine measurement of creatinine in the blood. The result is called the estimated glomerular filtration rate (EGFR).
Creatinine is a waste product formed by the normal breakdown of muscle cells. Healthy kidneys remove creatinine and blood began to leave the body in urine. When the kidneys are not working well, creatinine builds up in the blood. This reading alone can give a good indication if there is kidney failure.
Another sign of CKD is proteinuria, or protein in the urine. Healthy kidneys remove waste from the blood but leave protein. Impaired kidneys may fail to separate a blood protein called albumin in the trash. At first, only small amounts of albumin may leak into the urine, a condition known as microalbuminuria, a sign of kidney function. As kidney function worsens, the amount of albumin and other proteins in the urine increases, and the condition is called proteinuria.
Many people need medication to control high blood pressure. Several effective drugs on blood pressure are available in modern and alternative medicine. The most common types of drugs doctors prescribe blood pressure are diuretics, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, blockers, angiotensin receptor (ARBs), beta blockers and calcium antagonists. Diuretics, also known as “water pills” to help a person to urinate and eliminate excess fluid in the body. A combination of two or more blood pressure medications may be needed to keep blood pressure below 130/80. In Ayurveda Sarpgandha, Vache, Brahmi, Punarnava, are herbs that can control mild to moderate blood pressure.
All these drugs may be needed to maintain low blood pressure, however, the biggest problem is how to cure the disease? Transplant or dialysis is not a cure but a temporary solution.
