Question Details
High Creatinine In A Dog
by SFarnese - February 1, 2026    View Case Report
Is there any other herbs we can use to support or improve her kidney function? She did not do well with the Three seeds, she is doing ok on the rehmannia 8, I did get to check her blood pressure and it is running about 152/112. I added the gemmo hawthorn into her regimen to see if that helps with her blood pressure.

If she didn't improve on Three Seeds, but does stabilize on Rehmannia 8, stick with a Kidney tonifying approach. Maybe increase your dose of Reh 8 or try related formulas like Yi Guan Jian. Dang Gui in YGJ increases renal blood flow, too, so perhaps you'll see a greater impact on renal blood flow with it. Don't stop the Rehmannia 8, though. For now, just add in YGJ and see if there is an improvement.

Note that pyelonephritis presents the same (with an azotemia responsive to Rehmannia) but for some reason they only thrive on Rehmannia Six. Rule out pyelonephritis if you haven't already.

Hopefully, this helps!

Thank you so much for your reply, I have been looking at YGJ but wasn't sure. We definitely do not have pyelonephritis according to blood work.
