How does Chinese medicine treat chronic kidney failure?

Chronic renal failure (referred to as chronic renal failure) refers to the kidney damage caused by the late stage of various chronic kidney diseases, which is manifested by fatigue and lumbar acidity, foam in urine, decrease in urine volume, and even nausea and vomiting, ammonia taste in the mouth and so on, which is a serious condition and has a high mortality rate. In China, it is mainly caused by chronic nephritis, diabetes mellitus, lupus nephritis, hypertensive nephropathy and so on. Modern medicine mostly adopts dialysis therapy, which can only maintain life, and it is expensive, difficult to popularize, and not suitable for early and middle stage patients. While Chinese medicine has better efficacy and low cost in treating this disease. The integrated treatment with Chinese medicine has achieved good results, which are summarized as follows: 1. Oral Chinese medicinal soup: In the early stage, we mainly adopt the principle of strengthening the body and improving the immunity of the organism. In the middle stage, we use the combination of benefiting qi and supporting the right, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis to improve the blood supply to the kidneys and promote the excretion of toxins, and in the late stage, we use diuretics and detoxification to take care of the spleen and stomach and improve the quality of life. 2, proprietary Chinese medicines: renal failure Ning capsule, uremic acid clear particles, to protect the kidney Kang tablets, Jinshuibao, Bailing capsule and so on. Kidney Failure Ning, uremia Qing has the effect of benefiting qi and strengthening the spleen, activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and clearing the bowels of the body and draining the turbid effect. Kidney health tablets activate blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, improve blood supply to the kidneys, Jinshui Bao, Bai Ling capsule is artificial cultivation of Cordyceps sinensis powder, with similar pharmacological effects as natural Cordyceps sinensis, has the effect of improving immunity, lowering blood lipids, antioxidant and other protection of the kidneys, and renal failure and urethane, etc. The use of the combination of renal failure and urethane can effectively prevent the progression of chronic renal failure. 3, Chinese medicine retaining enema is also one of the commonly used means: 15~30 grams of raw rhubarb, 30 grams of dandelion (or June snow), 30 grams of raw oyster, 30 grams of Salvia divinorum, concentrated decoction into 300 ml, adjusted to the appropriate temperature of the enema, retained for 30 minutes is appropriate to keep the bowel movement 2~3 times a day. Chinese medicine enema acts directly on colon, which can stimulate the intestinal tract to promote defecation, play a role in clearing heat and detoxification, promote intestinal excretion of creatinine and urea nitrogen, improve the metabolism of amino acid in patients with chronic renal insufficiency, inhibit the synthesis of urea nitrogen in the renal tissues, enhance the discharge of toxins from the intestinal tract, and slow down the failure of renal function, and oyster has the efficacy of leveling liver and submerging yang, and tranquilizing the spirit, which can prevent the liver wind from moving inside and the occurrence of spasm and convulsion. It can prevent the internal movement of liver wind and the occurrence of convulsions, etc. 4, activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis treatment: modern medical research has proved that patients with renal failure are often accompanied by hypercoagulable and hyperviscous state, and the treatment of chronic renal failure can not be separated from activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis from the beginning to the end, which, in combination with heat and toxin removing medicines, can inhibit glomerulonephritis atrophy and fibrotic tissue proliferation, and promote reversal of the wasted renal units, and the oral traditional Chinese medicines can be added with angelica sinensis, dangshen (dangshen), peach kernel, safflower, and leech etc.. You can also choose traditional Chinese medicine danshen, safflower, haematoxylin (Panax ginseng extract), shuxianning (ginkgo biloba), lampblack finesse and other injections for intravenous drip. The course of treatment for 10 to 14 days can effectively improve the blood supply to the kidneys and reduce the high perfusion and high filtration state of the glomeruli, thus reducing the intra-glomerular pressure and protecting the kidneys. 5, medicinal bath: choose to have sweating Chinese medicine heated bath, by sweating to exclude the disease, generally available ephedra, cinnamon sticks, qiangwu, puffballs, safflower, etc., add water and boil for 20 minutes, poured into the bathtub, bathing for about 30 minutes, in order to maintain the temperature in the bathtub, should be increased constantly hot water, so that the body sweating, 2 to 3 times a week. Sweat, including urea nitrogen, potassium ions, lactic acid and other metabolites, through the medicinal bath, so that the secretion of sweat can be greatly improved, is conducive to the elimination of some of the toxins, to the evil to the way out, but also to reduce edema, itching and other symptoms. 6, diet: should be based on high-quality low-protein diet, low-protein diet can not only reduce the production of protein metabolites in the body, at the same time can reduce the burden on the kidneys, slow down the process of deterioration of renal function, reduce proteinuria, daily intake of high-quality protein (eggs, milk, lean meat, fish), to limit the intake of vegetable proteins, a day of high-quality protein should be evenly distributed to the 3 meals, do not concentrate on one meal in order to eat. Limit the intake of vegetable protein, can partially take wheat starch or corn starch, potato starch, lotus root powder, etc.. Integrated Chinese medicine treatment for uremic patients still has the effect of improving clinical symptoms, stabilizing renal function, improving anemia, etc. It is an effective therapy to maintain the continued survival of end-stage patients.
