A member asked:
How often could kidney function return if you suffered from acute renal failure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Renal failure : Most people recover renal function (rf) between 2-3 weeks of their going into acute kidney failure (akf). A times, it may take up to 3 months to recover it. The longer it takes to recover (rf), the less likely it is that renal function will return to pre-akf levels. Ask a neprhologist for more information.
