Patient's question:
My husband has kidney disease, so he needs to take some Shenshuanning tablets. However, his kidney disease has been going on for a long time, and it should take a long time to take Shenshuanning tablets to treat it well. I'm worried about the side effects of Shenshuanning tablets? Because he has to take it for so long, the side effects might be very serious.Doctor's answer:
No matter what medication it is, if taken for a long time, it will definitely have side effects on the body. In your case, you can take it for a period of time and then come back for a review to see if the kidney disease can continue to develop or if there are signs of improvement. Then, you can decide how to continue taking this medication. It is not recommended that you take medicine casually without a thorough check-up, as this will not only fail to treat kidney disease but also increase the pressure on the kidneys.
