A major advancement in diabetes treatment is here. Once-weekly insulin (Insulin Icodec) is designed to stay active in the body for 7 days, reducing the number of insulin injections from 365 a year to just 52.

While this is a significant step forward, it may not be suitable for everyone. In patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), blood sugar levels often fluctuate, so short-acting insulin continues to be the preferred option in many cases.

Research is also progressing on inhalational insulin, which has received FDA approval but is not yet commercially available, while oral insulin is still in the research phase.

Newer treatments are expanding options for diabetes care, but the right insulin always depends on an individual’s medical condition. Consult your doctor before making any changes to your treatment.

High phosphorus is common in people with CKD—but don’t make the mistake of cutting out all nutritious foods.

Here are some practical tips to help keep phosphorus under control:

• Avoid cola drinks and processed foods.
• Limit processed meats like bacon, salami, and sausages.
• Avoid processed cheese spreads.
• Foods like chia seeds and pumpkin seeds can be eaten, but only in moderation.
• Don’t stop milk, curd, paneer, or dals on your own—they provide important protein and nutrients and may still be included in the right amounts under medical guidance.

If phosphorus levels remain high despite dietary changes, your nephrologist may prescribe phosphorus-lowering medications.

Always discuss dietary restrictions with your doctor and renal dietitian to avoid malnutrition while managing CKD.

Taking 2–3 blood pressure medicines but your BP is still not under control? Don’t assume you just need more tablets. Sometimes, the real problem is an underlying cause that needs to be identified and treated.

• Hormonal disorders (thyroid or adrenal gland problems)
• Kidney disease or renal artery stenosis
• Hidden salt in bakery products, farsan, chakli, and processed foods
• To***co in any form (gutka, khaini, smoking, etc.)
• Certain medicines like painkillers, steroids, oral contraceptive pills, and over-the-counter nasal sprays/drops
• Obstructive sleep apnea (loud snoring, waking up tired) — a sleep study may be needed

The most common reason, however, is missing your BP medicines. Take them on time, set a reminder if needed, and work with your doctor to find the underlying cause. Better control starts with the right diagnosis—not just more medication.

💜 Today was a special day at our hospital.

Two young patients were discharged after successful kidney transplants, and both received the greatest gift from their mothers—a healthy kidney.

A kidney transplant is more than an operation. It can mean a longer, healthier life, fewer restrictions, and a chance to get back to family, work, and the moments that matter most.

To these incredible mothers, thank you for giving your children the gift of life—twice. Your courage, love, and selflessness are truly inspiring.

Here’s to new beginnings and healthier tomorrows. 💜

Comment “Kidney” and we’ll send you a free blueprint on when you should get your kidney tests done.

Kidney disease is often called a silent disease because symptoms usually appear only after significant kidney damage has already occurred.

The good news? Early detection is simple. An eGFR and Urine Routine test, costing around ₹500, can help detect kidney disease before it progresses.

If you have:
• Diabetes
• High blood pressure
• A family history of kidney disease
• Regular use of painkillers

…don’t wait for symptoms. Get screened. Early diagnosis allows timely treatment that can slow disease progression and, in many cases, help prevent kidney failure.

Time is Kidney.

Are sodas or sugary drinks good for your kidneys? The short answer: No. 🥤❌

• One bottle can contain 8–10 teaspoons of sugar, causing blood sugar spikes and kidney damage in people with diabetes.

• Regular consumption increases the risk of developing diabetes, a leading cause of kidney disease.

• High fructose content can raise uric acid levels and increase the risk of kidney stones.

• Phosphoric acid may raise phosphorus levels, leading to itching and bone problems in people with kidney disease.

• Some soft drinks are also high in sodium and potassium, which can worsen blood pressure and kidney-related issues.

Instead, choose healthier options like buttermilk, lemon water, or other natural beverages to stay hydrated this summer.

Doctor, how can I lower my creatinine?” 🤔

Creatinine is a marker of kidney function, not the disease itself. The key is to find and treat the underlying cause.

Common reversible causes of high creatinine include:

✅ Dehydration
✅ Certain painkillers and harmful medications
✅ Urinary or kidney infections
✅ Kidney stones or urinary blockage
✅ Autoimmune diseases like lupus

If you have diabetes or high blood pressure, keeping them under control is essential for protecting your kidneys.

Focus on improving kidney function—not just lowering the creatinine number. When kidney health improves, creatinine often improves too.

💊 Medicines help, but they’re only one part of the treatment.

For kidney disease, long-term health depends on:
✔️ Salt control
✔️ Blood pressure management
✔️ Blood sugar control
✔️ Regular exercise
✔️ Good sleep
✔️ Avoiding to***co and alcohol
✔️ Following your doctor’s advice consistently

When it comes to kidney health, discipline is just as important as medication.
