- Diuretics to reduce fluid retention

- ACE inhibitors or ARBs to lower blood pressure

- Statins to lower cholesterol

- Antibiotics to treat infections

- Surgery: Surgery may be necessary to correct underlying structural problems, such as blockages or narrowing of the renal arteries.

- Lifestyle changes: Lifestyle changes can help slow the progression of renal parenchymal disease and improve overall health. These may include:

- Eating a healthy diet low in sodium, saturated fat, and cholesterol

- Maintaining a healthy weight

- Getting regular exercise

- Limiting alcohol intake

- Managing blood sugar levels if you have diabetes

The best treatment plan will depend on the individual patient's situation. It is important to work closely with a healthcare provider to develop a treatment plan that is right for you.
