Dr. Joseph Mercola - Take Control of Your Health

The Pill Bottle vs. Your Kidneys: A Silent Struggle - AI Podcast

28 Jul 2025

Description

Story at-a-glance Common medications like NSAIDs, antibiotics, acid blockers, and laxatives quietly damage your kidneys, even when used as directed Kidney symptoms often show up late, so damage is underway before you feel anything, especially if you're older or taking multiple prescriptions NSAIDs reduce blood flow, antibiotics clog, or inflame kidney filters and proton pump inhibitors trigger immune reactions that harm kidney tissue Imaging contrast dyes used in CT or MRI scans sharply reduce kidney function in vulnerable people, particularly those with diabetes or dehydration Reviewing your medications regularly, leading a healthy lifestyle and using natural alternatives help reduce your kidney burden and prevent long-term harm
