Discussion on Chronic Kidney Disease Treatment as per Ayurveda
Ayurveda is a leading choice of medicine in recent days, especially in non-communicable diseases. Chronic kidney disease, which is commonly called as ckd has remained as challenge to allopathic science too and generally has bad prognosis eventually. This case study provides evidence and can be a silver lining in the treatment of this condition as a compliment to allopathic medicine. In this particular case, there was considerable reduction in Serum urea and creatinine even when the patient was on regular dialysis two times a week.
