ABSTRACT
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Stage II often coexists with hypertension, forming a complex bidirectional relationship that complicates treatment and worsens outcomes. This case study explores the integrative management of CKD Stage II with hypertension in a 36-year-old male patient treated at Jeena Sikho Lifecare Limited Hospital, Derabassi, India. The patient presented with complaints of generalized weakness and bilateral leg swelling. A personalized Ayurvedic treatment plan was administered over four months. Clinical outcomes showed significant improvement. Blood pressure normalized from a peak of 180/110 mmHg to 120/90 mmHg, and pulse rate stabilized. Global GFR improved from 65.8 to 68.1 ml/min, while serum creatinine decreased from 2.11 to 1.40 mg/dL. Hemoglobin levels rose to 11.7 gm/dL, and urea and BUN levels declined, indicating better renal and systemic function. The findings suggest that Ayurvedic management may offer a safe and effective approach for stabilizing CKD and associated hypertension. Although this case demonstrated encouraging outcomes, it is based on a single patient observation. To substantiate the efficacy, safety, and reproducibility of integrated Ayurvedic interventions in CKD with hypertension, larger-scale randomized controlled trials are essential.
