The most common medication for kidney failure patients is steroids like prednisone and methylprednisolone, especially for nephrotic syndrome patients. They think only steroids can treat their disease.

1. Can steroids really cure kidney failure?

Before answering this question, let’s first see what functions of steroids.

Prednisone is the most common steroid. It has function of reduce the permeability of kidney cells and stop the leakage of protein and other substances. From this analysis, we can see the main function of steroid is to control symptoms but has little curative effect. This is also the reason why kidney disease patients have a high risk of relapse with steroids.

2. How to treat kidney failure without steroids?

First we should know how kidney disease comes from.

Through many years of clinical research, we found the root cause of kidney disease. That is, decreased immunity induces immune complexes deposition. Immune complexes deposition can cause damages including ultra immune inflammatory response, renal ischemia and hypoxia, paraplasm of renal cells. Steroids can only do some help for ultra immune inflammatory response but have no any functions on the rest two damages.

3. What should we do in that condition?

First is diagnosis.

Other hospitals only do tests like blood routine examination and urine routine examination. When there show urine protein and occult blood, the doctors will require patients to take biopsy to determine the pathological type. In Shi Jiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, we introduced the most advanced check items in the world such as urinary protein component testing, renal tubular epithelial cells test in urine and glomerular protein filtration index test and so on. These check items can determine the pathological type clearly and patients have no need to take biopsy. Other hospitals have no these check items so they only rely on biopsy.

Second is the treatment.

Since we have found the root cause of kidney disease, we have made a great breakthrough in the treatment. We use Chinese medicine and form the treatment theory-Qi, Stagnant, Blood, Stasis and poison. It is also unique in the option of Chinese medicines and formula.

Whether kidney failure is curable just depends on your choice. We hope you make a wise choice and get recovery as soon as possible.
