Use of a low-protein diet supplemented with amino acid ketoanalogues as part of a Drug Programme B.113. Clinical case reports

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an increasingly common condition associated with age, diabetes and hypertension. In addition to medication, nonpharmacological methods of kidney protection are used, which include lifestyle modifications. In this, the reduction of protein intake and the use of ketoanalogues of amino acids (KA) play an important role. Since 2021, a drug programme has been implemented in Poland for people with stage 4 and 5 CKD which includes the use of a low-protein diet and KA. The diet aims to reduce the production of uremic toxins, slow disease progression and improve patients’ quality of life.
