CKD, diabetic nephropathy patients with proteinuria, creatininie clearance less than 50ml/min.
Chronic renal insufficiency in compensated or decompensated retention.
Adult Dose
Oral
Adults (70 kg body weight): If not otherwise prescribed take 4-8 tablets 3 times a day during meals.
It is given as long as the GFR is <25 mL/min and a diet with an intake of maximum 40 g protein/day (for adults) is followed.

Interactions
Adverse Effects
Side effects of Alpha Ketoanalogues & essential amino acids (Isoleucine, leucine, phenylalanine, valine, methionine, L-lysine, L-threonine, L-tryptophan, L-histidine, L-tyrosine, nitrogen) :
Hypercalcaemia may develop. In this case, it is recommended to decrease vitamin D intake.
If the hypercalcaemia persists, reduce the dosage as well as any other source of calcium.
Mechanism of Action
Amino acids, including combinations with polypeptides. This allows the intake of essential amino acids while minimizing the amino-nitrogen intake. Following absorption, the keto- and hydroxyanalogues are transaminated to the corresponding essential amino acids by taking nitrogen from non-essential amino acids, thereby decreasing the formation of urea by re-using the amino group. Hence, the accumulation of uraemic toxins is reduced.
