A member asked:
What are good vitamins for the kidney?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: Several vitamins are known to be harmful in kidney patients such as vitamin a, e and k . None of the vitamins have been shown to prevent or slow down the progression of kidney disease. If you have kidney disease then you should not take over the counter multivitamins. You can take multivitamins specially formulated for kidney patients such as prorenal, dialyvite etc.
