What medications to take in the early stages of diabetic nephropathy

In the early stage of diabetic nephropathy, oral hypoglycemic drugs (e.g. dagliflozin) are needed; meanwhile, corresponding treatments are given according to the comorbidities, such as diuretics (furosemide) in case of edema, detoxification drugs (renal failure capsules) in case of blood creatinine elevation, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone receptor antagonist (valsartan, Benadryl) in case of hypertension, and so on.
1. Antihyperglycemic drugs: Glibenclamide, Glipizide, Gliclazide, Repaglinide, Nateglinide, Dagliflozin and other antihyperglycemic drugs can be chosen for the treatment to effectively control the primary disease, so as to control the condition of diabetic nephropathy in the early stage of diabetic nephropathy and to slow down the progress of the disease.
2. Diuretics: Diabetic nephropathy in the early stage often causes edema and hypertension, which can be treated with diuretics. Commonly used diuretics include hydrochlorothiazide, furosemide, aminopterin, spironolactone and so on. It can reduce the effective circulating blood volume, and then achieve the effect of relieving edema and lowering blood pressure.
3. Detoxification drugs: in the early stage of diabetic nephropathy, blood creatinine can also be elevated, at this time, you can choose oral detoxification drugs, such as renal failure capsule, urethane particles.
4. Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone receptor antagonist: early diabetic nephropathy can also be combined with hypertension or proteinuria, at this time can be oral valsartan, Benadryl and so on for antihypertensive, urinary protein reduction therapy.
It is recommended that patients with early diabetic nephropathy go to regular hospitals as soon as possible, follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment, protect renal function, reduce and delay the occurrence of large amounts of urinary protein. The above medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor, and should not be used without authorization, so as not to aggravate the condition.
