Treatment for acute kidney failure typically requires a hospital stay, however most people with acute kidney failure are already hospitalized. In some cases—typically those more mild in nature—patients may be able to recover at home. There are a few different treatment options for kidney failure, including: Treating the Underlying Cause of the Kidney Injury — If the root cause of acute kidney failure can be diagnosed, it may be able to be treated. Treatment options for kidney failure depend on what is causing the problems. Treating Complications Until the Kidneys Recover — Renal doctors (naturopathic-doctor) also work to prevent complications and allow the kidneys time to properly heal. Treatments that help prevent complications include: • Balancing the amount of fluids in blood • Medications to control blood potassium • Medications to restore blood calcium levels • Dialysis to remove toxins from the blood If you are experiencing symptoms related to kidney failure, do not delay care!
