My CKD Medications for Blood Pressure, Uric Acid, and Cholesterol

Medications that lower blood pressure can also significantly slow the progression of kidney disease. Two types of blood pressure-lowering medications, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), have been shown effective in slowing the progression of kidney disease and reducing protein in your urine.  Talk to your doctor to make certain your blood pressure medication is helpful, not harmful, to your kidneys.  How medications work and their impact on your body will vary from person to person.  Some medications are also not recommended for those on Dialysis, such as Clonidine.  Here are the medications I take to keep my blood pressure under 120/80, keep my Uric Acid controlled (prevent gout), and lower my Cholesterol.
