And it kills me when patient says something like “oh the hospital doc said that medicine was hurting my kidneys”
And then there’s reluctance to resume.
So I try to teach trainees to be mindful of their choice of words if holding RASi is indeed necessary.

Dietary potassium can be good for you.
AND there is little to no correlation btwn dietary K intake & serum K level (even in pts w/ CKD).

HyperK-related RASi discontinuation or down-titration was a/w higher risk of cardiorenal events vs maintained or up-titrated RASi.
And when RASi gets held, we’re not good at restarting them.

RAS blockade is protective
Decrease CV events
Decrease CKD progression
Decrease HF hospitalization
Etc etc
#Kidneywk
And the effect is maintained even with low eGFR!
