What is the treatment for kidney failure in India?

Treatment for kidney failure in India depends on its stage, underlying cause, severity, and overall patient’s health condition. The treatment regime is focused on adequate diagnosis and intends to control the symptomatic changes, underlying condition, managing complications, and supporting the kidneys when they can no longer perform their functions adequately.
For advanced kidney failure, dialysis is one of the main treatment options. Hemodialysis uses a machine to remove waste and excess fluid from the blood, while peritoneal dialysis uses the lining of the abdomen to perform this filtering function. The choice between these options depends on medical condition, lifestyle, and the advice of a nephrologist.
