[Renoprotective treatments : renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade and beyond].

RENIN-ANGIOTENSINALDOSTERONE SYSTEM BLOCKADE AND BEYOND. Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) require both etiological and symptomatic treatments to slow renal function decline. Reductions of protein and salt intakes are required. Pharmacological treatments combines blockade of the renin-angiotensin system, sodium-glucose co-transporter type 2 inhibitors and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists in most diabetic patients. The albumin creatinine ration (ACR) in morning spot urine samples is now a therapeutic target both in diabetic and non-diabetic CKD patients.
