How to increase glomerular filtration rate?
I once read that sugar increases GFR. Do you know any other substance which have the same effect. I have need of substances which can be eaten ir drinkable.
Thank you.
Answer:
low dose dopamine (commonly call renal dose) can do it.
so can osmotic diuretics like mannitol.
anything that increases blood flow to the kidneys will do it, so giving isoproterenol to increase cardiac output, for instance, would also do it.
Glomerular filtration rate is fixed, lone reabortion or secretion by renal tubules can be effected by medication.
you can use Theophylline , a xanthine , it is present in tea so you can drink as much as you can . it act as a diuretic by increasing GFR .
Just drink a lot of sea. GFR and Urine Output is synonymous. Diuretics will help you such as tea, coffe, sonfdrinks, alcohol and some drugs. Increase your fluid intake.
