boise kidney & hypertension

The Boise Kidney and Hypertension Center is dedicated to offering specialized services for the treatment of kidney diseases and hypertension. Patients here can undergo comprehensive diagnostics and receive tailored treatment plans aimed at managing and enhancing their health status.

Typically, kidney diseases and hypertension are interconnected. High blood pressure can injure the small arteries within the kidneys, which in turn impacts their filtration capabilities, leading to a decrease in renal function. On the other hand, kidney diseases may also trigger an increase in blood pressure. Consequently, physicians take into account the interplay between these two conditions when devising treatment strategies.

For individuals suffering from both kidney disease and hypertension, it is crucial to regularly monitor blood pressure and kidney function. Moreover, maintaining a healthy lifestyle that includes a balanced diet, regular exercise, abstaining from smoking, and moderating alcohol intake can aid in managing the disease. Regarding pharmacological treatment, patients should only use antihypertensive medications and other necessary drugs under the supervision of a physician, avoiding the indiscriminate self-administration of medication.
