Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

The present study is a open labelled clinical study assessing the effectiveness of Ayurveda treatment for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) with serum creatinine levels between 1.4 mg/dL and 3.0 mg/dL. Conducted with 20 patients from the IPD of P. D. Patel Ayurveda Hospital, Nadiad, the study employed Shodhana Treatment (Virechana Karma and Niruha Basti) and specific oral formulations including Varunadi kwatha, Gokshuradiguggulu and Rasayana churna aimed at restoring Mutravaha Srotas functions and rejuvenating renal tissues. Findings showed significant improvements, with a marked reduction in symptoms such as edema and general weakness and an increase in kidney function markers, including eGFR and reduction in Serum creatinine, Blood urea and urine albumin . The study suggests that Ayurvedic treatments may decelerate CKD progression, potentially delaying the need for renal replacement therapy.
