A member asked:
Is entresto safe for kidneys? my egfr went from 112 to 61 in a couple months?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Entresto is known to cause an increase in creatinine and indirectly a decrease in GFR in most patients and aside from acute renal failure in a minority, less than 5%. Monitoring and dose adjustments may be needed with the help of your current prescriber.
