Is vitamin B12 beneficial for people with kidney disease?

HUYỀN TRANG (THEO medicalnewstoday) |

Research shows that vitamin B12 supplementation is beneficial for people with kidney disease.

Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin. Supplementing vitamin B12 can help treat anemia, a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and help improve clinical outcomes for people with CKD.

Kidney disease can affect the ability to metabolize vitamin B12. Dietary changes, drug interactions, and blood filtration can also contribute to vitamin deficiency.

When you have kidney disease, you can consider adding some water-soluble vitamins including B1, B2, B6, B12, folic acid, niacin, pantothenic acid, biotin and vitamin C.

However, even when you take vitamin supplements, it is important to follow your doctor's dietary recommendations if you are diagnosed with kidney disease.

At the same time, you must take other medications as recommended by your doctor to help prevent further damage to the kidneys.
