Ayurvedic Medicine & Treatment Protocol for Kidney Failure



Ayurveda has a completely different approach to treat kidney failure. Ayurveda says there are seven basic dhatus in human body namely Rasa, Rakta, Masa, Meda, Asthi, Majha & Shukra. The kidney as an organ is “Rakta” and “Meda” dhatus. The basic lies in treating this two dhatus if we have to treat kidneys. According to Ayurvedic Physiology, there are two waste materials in the body ‘ama’ and ‘kitta’. ‘Ama’ is a substance which is formed by undigested/fermented food which generally happens in any individual. ‘Kitta’ can be compared with waste which is removed from the body like sweat, feces, and urine.

In Renal Impairment, Kapha dosha is vitiated. Especially, its type named Kledak Kapha, which moistens the ingested food and thus helps in the digestion process. Impairment of Apana Vayu, a type of vayu, will also impair the excretion of urine or cause urine retention. Pachaka Pitta, again a type of Pitta, produces the urine in the intestine and kidney just helps to excrete the pre-formed urine, traveling with Rasa dhatu to kidneys.

So, synchronizing the three doshas Apana Vayu, Pachaka Pitta & Kledak Kapha is the goal of Ayurvedic Treatment for Kidney Failure.

The goals of Ayurvedic Treatment for Renal Failure that is followed at the center are to Correct or treat the cause of kidney failure, Support the kidneys until they have healed and can work properly and Prevent or treat any complications caused by acute renal failure.  


With Ayurvedic medicine Creatinine & Urea levels come down slowly & gradually the frequency of dialysis is reduced. Associated symptoms like weakness, pain in joints, etc. diminish. Ayurvedic medicine also helps to prevent its effects on the heart.

Stages of Kidney Failure

With chronic kidney disease , the kidneys don’t usually fail all at once. Instead, kidney disease often progresses slowly over a period of years.  The National Kidney Foundation (NKF) created a guideline to help doctors identify each level of kidney disease. The NKF divided kidney disease into five stages .  Where you are placed into CKD stage 3 or higher, it usually depends on an estimate of kidney function. Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the best measure of kidney function . A math formula using the person’s age, race, gender, and serum creatinine is used to calculate a GFR. A doctor will order a blood test to measure the serum creatinine level. As kidney function slows, blood levels of creatinine rise. Even with a normal GFR, you may be at increased risk for developing CKD if you have diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of kidney disease . The risk increases with age: People ...
