Is lemon good to reduce creatinine?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Lemon should not increase Uric acid level and should not increase the serum creatinine level. It will increase citrate elimination in the urine which can decrease the rate of kidney stone formation.

I've just learned that my dad has chronic kidney failure, and the doctors are suggesting a kidney transplant. They say my kidney is a match, and I've decided to donate. Can you give me some guidance on what to expect or prepare for? I'm 33 and just want to make sure I'm making the right choices and fully understand what's involved.
Before the kidney transplant, you will need to undergo a series of tests to ensure that you are healthy enough for the procedure. This includes blood tests, imaging tests, and a thorough physical examination. As a donor, you will also need to follow a specific preparation regimen before the surgery. After the transplant, you will be prescribed immunosuppressant medications to prevent rejection of the transplanted kidney. Common medications include Tacrolimus, Mycophenolate, and Prednisone. The dosage and frequency of these medications will be determined by your transplant team based on your individual needs. It's important to follow your healthcare team's instructions closely and attend all follow-up appointments to monitor your kidney function and overall health post-transplant. If you have any concerns or experience any unusual symptoms, be sure to inform your healthcare provider promptly.
