Treatment Options

As a Chronic Kidney Disease patient you have multiple options of treatments to choose from, depending on the stage of CKD you are at and the facilities available near you.

When it comes to CKD patients, at 7Med we believe that the best person to design your therapy program together with you is your Nephrologist. Knowing your body requirements they are the best people to guide as to what therapy program you should follow, what medicines you should take, when its right to start dialysis, which type of dialysis you should start, what should be the frequency and dosage of dialysis etc. So we highly recommend you to discuss all your options, share all your inhibitions and fears relating to treatments so that your doctor can guide you best and design best therapy plan customized to your needs.

As explained about various stages of CKD and requirement of dialysis generally arises at CKD stage 5 which is also known as End Stage Renal Disease(ESRD). We would be further discussing treatment or therapy options available to patients suffering from End Stage Renal Disease(ESRD).
