Given your description: –Creatinine: 1.04 mg/dL (borderline / slightly elevated depending on age & lab) Potassium: slightly high Already taking Nefrosave (renal supplement/medication) —This matters because: Some herbal diuretics can alter potassium balance In older adults, kidney handling of potassium is already reduced Combining multiple “kidney support” products can sometimes be unnecessary or risky. –In this case, careful monitoring and kidney-safe management is more important than adding herbal treatment. – supportive treatment 1) Punarnavadi Kashayam - 15 ml + equal water, twice daily before food 2) Gokshuradi Guggulu - 1 tablets, twice daily after food 3) Varunadi Kashayam - 15 ml + water, twice daily before food 4) Chandraprabha Vati - 1 tablet (250 mg), twice daily after food — Important in her case Because she has: Mildly high creatinine High potassium Elderly age---- continue monitoring with reports after 15 days.
Punarnava is mainly known for its mutrala (diuretic) and shothahara (anti-inflammatory) properties. It supports kidney function, helps reduce fluid accumulation, and may prevent further cyst enlargement indirectly. However, it does NOT reliably shrink or eliminate a simple renal cyst, especially in elderly patients. Its role is more supportive than curative. In this case: Creatinine 1.04 → near normal (monitor regularly) Ayurvedic use Punarnava churna: 2–3 g twice daily with warm water OR Punarnava kwath: 20–30 ml twice daily
Punarnava works great as diuretic so yes it helps removing Renal stone. Drink plenty of water and keep electrolyte balance so you don’t loose excess electrolytes through urine. There are some more medicine you need some more medicine. Take them as well. Avoid Spinach, tomato seeds, brinjal,raisin,brinjal,ladyfinger(okra),beetroot, grapes,chiku etc( bcz high in oxalate, a stone forming content). Keep hydration enough.
A simple renal cyst is usually a benign fluid-filled cyst in the kidney and is commonly found in elderly individuals during routine ultrasound. Most simple cysts do not require active treatment unless they: • Increase significantly in size • Cause pain / pressure symptoms • Affect kidney function • Show complex features on imaging In many cases, treatment focuses on monitoring kidney health rather than shrinking the cyst aggressively. Punarnava may support kidney health, but it should not be expected to reliably shrink a simple renal cyst. You can take 1. Gokshuradi Guggulu Dose: 1 tablet twice daily after food with warm water 2. Chandraprabha Vati Dose: 1 tablet twice daily after food. 3. Varunadi Kashayam Dose: 15 ml + 45 ml warm water twice daily before food. Use for 6–8 weeks, then review: Serum creatinine Potassium eGFR Blood pressure Repeat ultrasound as advised
Punarnava help in improving kidney function so you can take What is potassium levels
Punarnava is medicine that improves parameters of kidney , will not dissolve cyst. For cyst you take Kanchanar guggul 1-0-1 after food with water Vriddhivadhika vati 1-0-1 after food with water You also need medicine to improve kidney . Take Chandraprbha vati 1+0-1 after food with water Renogest tablet 1-0-1 after food with water. Lessen intake of salt in your diet If potassium is high Avoid fruits, salads. Pink salt. Coconut water
Hello dear,
From an Ayurvedic perspective, a renal cyst is often viewed as a Granthi (a glandular swelling or growth) caused by an imbalance in Vata and Kapha doshas. Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa) is highly regarded as a Mutrala (diuretic) and Rasayana (rejuvenator) that helps flush out toxins and reduce swelling.
While Punarnava helps in fluid balance, Ayurvedic protocols for reducing the actual size of a “Granthi” often combine it with “Lekhana” (scraping) herbs like Kanchanar to break down the cyst wall.
Creatinine (1.04) is generally considered within or at the high end of the normal range, In Ayurveda, this indicates a need to improve the “Srotas” (channels) of the kidney.
Punarnava is a natural diuretic. Using it alongside Nefrosave (which often contains Taurine and Acetylcysteine to protect kidneys) or if there is already high potassium, requires caution. Diuretics can sometimes shift electrolyte levels.
For a “Granthi” (cyst) with mild renal stress, the following is a common Ayurveda protocol.
Prescription :
1. Punarnavadi Kwath
Action: Reduces swelling and supports kidney filtration.
Dose: 15 ml mixed with 60 ml of boiled and cooled water, taken twice daily on an empty stomach (approx. 30 minutes before food).
2. Kanchanar Guggulu
Action: Specifically used in Ayurveda to reduce the size of cysts and growths.
Dose: 2 tablets twice daily, taken after food with warm water.
3. Chandraprabha Vati
Action: A general kidney tonic that helps manage creatinine levels and urinary health.
Dose: 1 tablet twice daily after food.
Since the user already has “slightly high potassium,” do not start these without a doctor’s supervision. Some herbs can inadvertently increase potassium if kidney clearance is slow.
Maintain adequate water intake unless a fluid restriction has been advised by her nephrologist.
Re-check creatinine and potassium levels after 15–30 days of starting any Ayurvedic treatment to ensure they are trending in the right direction.
You can give me follow up after that… By personal consultation.
don t worry only use syrp . neeri kft 5 ml 3 times with 30 ml water
Yes punarnava will help in reducing the renal cyst as and creatine level but along with that cause for that should also be treated proper daily not control natural urges drink required amount of water practice gomokhasana trikonasana surya namaskar ustra asana bastrika pranayama bujanga asana Vastyamantaka grutha 5ml empty stomach Gokshuradi guggulu 2-0-2after food Consult me directly for any doubts Thank you
