Can alpha lipoic acid help lower the high creatinine level in kidney failure? This is a common question for kidney failure patients who have high creatinine level. As we know, kidney failure means the kidneys have been damaged, and the kidney function will be gradually reduced. Then the creatinine level will be increased. And kidney failure patients need to take medicine to lower the high creatinine level.

Alpha lipoic acid is a kind of medicine, which has been proved that it can lower the high creatinine level and BUN level. It has been shown that the high creatinine 9.8 has been lowered to 7.4, and the high BUN level has been reduced from 114 to 86 after taking the medicine for weeks. So we can know that the alpha lipoic acid can help lower the high creatinine level in kidney failure.

Alpha lipoic acid can help provide energy to kidneys, and it can also help enhance the kidney function, which can help remove the toxins and wastes in blood. In this process, it can help lower the creatinine level and BUN level. In addition, the alpha lipoic acid can also help balance the blood sugar levels and control the complications of diabetes, which will be good for kidney failure patients to prevent the further damage to kidneys.

The doctor often recommend kidney failure patients to take 300 mg alpha lipoic acid, which can help lower the high creatinine level. However, the medicine can only lower the creatinine level for a short time. When patients stop taking it, the creatinine level will come back again.

Therefore, kidney failure patients need to have alternative treatment to improve their kidney function, then the high creatinine level can be reduced fundamentally.
