Description
Ketosteril Tablet is a specialized nutritional medicine containing essential amino acid analogues and essential amino acids. It is used as part of a medically supervised nutritional approach for people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), particularly when a low-protein diet is recommended.
Ketosteril is designed to provide the body with essential amino acid components while helping reduce the intake of nitrogen from dietary protein. It may be prescribed alongside an appropriate low-protein or very-low-protein diet to support nutritional management in patients with impaired kidney function.
Uses of Ketosteril Tablet
Ketosteril may be recommended as part of the dietary management of chronic kidney disease. It is generally used together with a controlled-protein diet rather than as a replacement for standard kidney disease treatment.
Your doctor or renal dietitian can determine whether Ketosteril is appropriate based on kidney function, nutritional requirements, laboratory results, and dietary needs.
