“My father suffer from diabetes more than 20 years, and now he has a high creatinine level which ups to 7.2. How to lower it?” the question comes from a person who consult our Online Doctor. In the passage, we will discuss the issues in details.

Creatinine 7.2 is extremely higher than the normal ranges which ranges from 0.5 to 1.2mg/dl. In the normal condition, as the metabolic products of muscle activities and meat products, extra creatinine should be discharged out of the body effectively by the healthy kidneys. However, for diabetic renal disease patients, the damaged kidneys cannot do the job effectively. What’s more, 7.2 creatinine level usually indicates advanced kidney damage.

Facing the condition, Dialysis or Kidney Transplant is recommended to patients when creatinine level reaches to 5mg/dl. For patients with kidney disease, dialysis or kidney transplant is recommended generally when creatinine level increases to about 5. For Diabetic Kidney Disease patients, they may need to start dialysis earlier as persistent high blood sugar affects not only kidney, but also other systems like nerve system, eye and so on. For patients with creatinine 7.3, there is high concentration of toxin in their blood. These toxic substances may damage any part of their body, so removing these toxins out of the blood in time is very important. Otherwise, they will be in a very dangerous condition.

In our Treatment center, we recommended Blood Purification to you. Compared to dialysis, blood purification is more effective and systemic. The treatment includes many kinds of blood purification technologies like hemodialysis, hemoperfusion, immune adsorption, Plasma exchange and so on. All of them can help discharge extra wastes and toxins from the body effectively. In addition, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) can be applied at the same time. Through the dilating blood vessels, anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation, degrading extracellular matrix, and supplying necessary nutrients, kidney damage can be well improved and renal function can be enhanced from the root.
