ketosteril was prescribed by my doctor in treatment of suspected kidney failure. The drug is very expensive here in the philippines, is there any substitute for Ketosteril 600 which is much cheaper?

Drinking 3 liters of water a day plus dietary regimen may be trully helpful. My mother's creatinine was 1.2 and I advised her to drink banana water ( boiled banaba leaves) and the creatinine went down to 1.1. But after 3 months became 1.3 despite drinking banaba water (it is considered diuretic), another 3 months became 1.5, and after 3 months again 1.9. Non-hypertensive and non-diabetic but 80 years old and taking several medicines for the heart to prevent blood clotting, anti-angina, multivitamins, blood pressure maintenance ( despite BP maintained normal). I strictly advised her to drink water at least 2 liters a day. I gave her a container so that she can follow my instruction well. Plus limiting sodium and potassium into normal. After 3 months her creatinine level was 1.6. Her doctor advised her ketosteril/ renalog 600mg 3x a day. I prepared ketosteril and we are on the 2nd month plus following instruction on the leaflet of ketosteril to limit protein to 50 gms a day. Sadfully my mother eats protein 50 to 100 gms a day. My point is drinking a lot of water at the very early stage of kidney problem is might be trully helpful.

Ask your pharmacy about a leaflet of your drug. It is a complete information about the drug that may clear up your doubtfulness. If still doubtful, you may ask for the explanation of your doctor with regards to the said leaflet. Ketosteril is most wildly used in the hospital given by well-known doctors.

Yes, there is an option to expensive ketoanalogues. It is at least 3 Liters of fluids a day for women and 4 Liters of water for men. Dietary measures related to the provoking illness is mandatory as well as keeping your blood sugar and blood pressure under control

It takes discipline taking 3 Liters of water daily. It is not fun waking up 3 times at night to use the bathroom. But if dialysis is the eventuallity, it is worth all the sacrifice.

Ketoanalogues are necessary when ketones are elevated in your blood. This is common with severe Insulin dependent diabetics or hypertensives with circulation Problems (leg swelling or lungs and liver are swollen with fluids). These patients usually have shortness of breath. Their lungs try to eliminate the excess acids in the blood which their kidneys can no longer eliminate. So the lungs try its best to eliminate the acids from Body waste.

Each Patient of course is individually treated. Major consideration will be your creatinine Levels and sugar Levels.

I know a Patient personally in the Philippines who had creatinine of 1.5 and was prescribed ketoanalogue and renal vitamins. She doled 5000 Pesos monthly on both not including her BP meds. I advised her the 3 Basic things I advise you now: 3 Liters of liquids daily, dietary measures and control of her BP.

I told her to discontinue the ketoanalogue and buy Papaya and banana instead of renal vit.

After a month she had repeat labs. Her creatinine had normalized to 1.1

I wish you the improvement from my advice
