Is lemon good to reduce creatinine?

Doctor 1

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'm really worried about my dad. He's got this kidney issue, diagnosed with CKD, and though he's stable now, today he mentioned he's having trouble urinating and the amount has decreased. I was wondering if giving him Urispas would help with his urination. Do you think it's okay to give him that?

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been on dialysis for 10 years and was recently admitted to the hospital with a really bad lung infection. They tried some antibiotics like merotac and mucinac but those didnt seem to work. Then they sent his sputum culture to Hinduja hospital, and once they figured out the bacteria, they switched up his treatment. He was on Mikacin and Zonamax for a bit, and then they put him on Altitpod CV 200. He's doing a bit better now but his cough hasn't improved at all, and he still needs oxygen when he feels tired after walking a bit at home. I'm just wondering if you think the treatment he's getting is right and if there's anything we can do to help with his cough. Any advice you could offer would be great.

Probable diagnosis is upper respiratory tract infection.Patient is advised tab augmentin duo 625mg thrice daily, for 5 days, tab pan d,orally once daily for 14 days ,syrup sucralfate 10ml thrice daily for 14 days.Also avoid spicy and hot items is advised to the patient.

I'm getting a creatinine test soon and I'm a bit unsure about whether I should be drinking water beforehand. Like, how much water is okay to drink, and when should I drink it? Does it have any impact on the results of the creatinine level test? I'm just trying to make sure everything's good for accurate results.

drink 6 to 8 liters water per day
