Question
What should be done if elderly diabetics have high creatinine levels?
Answer
I have had diabetes for 15 years and now my kidney function is deteriorating with a high creatinine level of 221. The key is not just to lower creatinine, but to reduce blood sugar levels. Guidance: Only by lowering blood sugar can we effectively prevent kidney damage. Kidney protective drugs are all symptomatic and cannot truly lower creatinine levels. Only by using insulin therapy at the source can we effectively protect the kidneys and reduce the side effects of hypoglycemic drugs.
