Can I Use Ketosteril with High Creatinine in Lupus Nephritis Can I use ketosteril with high creatinine in Lupus Nephritis? When Lupus Nephritis patients begin to notice the high creatinine level, if we rule out other factors, high creatinine level can tell Lupus Nephritis patients that the kidney function has been impaired. Ketosteril is commonly prescribed in clinic to treat kidney disease and help lower high creatinine and high BUN levels. However, in general, ketosteril is prescribed to kidney patients with GFR lower than 25. In other words, ketosteril is commonly used by patients with stage 4 Chronic Kidney Disease. What is your current creatinine level? You can tell us more about your condition to kidney-support@hotmail, some diet suggestions about low-protein diet will be given. That is because ketosteril always couples with low-protein diet to lower high creatinine levels. Ketosteril capture the nitrogen within the body and convert themselves into amino acids. Malnutrition is thus prevented and the workload of the kidney to excrete nitrogen-containing waste products is reduced. Thus the progress of CKD slows down and dialysis can be postponed. However, compared with lowering high creatinine level, ketosteril has a more obvious effect in lowering high BUN levels. Also another fact is that ketosteril can not help avoid dialysis from the root. kidney-support.org/lupus-nephritis-treatment/2094.html
