Urea and creatinine are nitrogenous end products of metabolism, both of which
are relatively small molecules that distribute throughout total body water. A
blood urea nitrogen, or BUN, test along with Creatinine levels are often
performed to evaluate and measure how the kidneys are working. Can creatinine
7.3 and Urea Nitrogen 140 be treated without dialysis?
Normal levels
Normal creatinine levels are between 0.5~1.1 mg/dL for an adult female and
0.6~1.2 mg/dL for an adult make. Normal levels of BUN are between 10~20 mg/dL
for an adult and 5~18 mg/dL for a child. These numbers can vary by
laboratory.
Creatinine 7.3 and Urea Nitrogen 140
For patients with kidney disease, the levels of creatinine and BUN may become
elevated due to damaged kidney function.
In general, patients with creatinine 7.3 and Urea Nitrogen 140 may have
developed CKD Stage 4, and the remaining amount of kidney function may be less
than 30 percent. Kidney damage is so severe with such poor function that the
kidneys are barely able to keep a person alive.
As kidney function declines, wastes will build up in the blood, thus leading
to a condition - "Uremia". It is likely that someone in this stage will need
dialysis in the near future.
Is there any alternative therapy aside from dialysis? The answer is "Yes".
That is the latest treatment for kidney disease - Immunotherapy. It can help
patients prevent further deterioration effectively.
On one hand, Chinese herbal medicine is used to stop the progression of
kidney disease through promoting blood circulation, eliminating the symptoms,
and creating an advantageous environment for kidney repair. On the other hand,
the application of Immunotherapy can help us restore the renal function and
rebuild the immune system. Under the surprising curative effects of systemic
Immunotherapy, patients can avoid renal dialysis successfully. Our kidney
experts are available online to help you analyse your disease in detail, feel
free to talk with them if you need any help.
