Dual Antioxidant Supplementation With N-Acetylcysteine and Taurine (Nefrosave ® ) for Cardio-Renal Protection in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients With Diabetes and/or Hypertension: A Real-World, Retrospective, Comparative Study

Paper C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

Researchers looked back at charts of people with kidney disease plus diabetes or high blood pressure who took a branded supplement combining two antioxidants, N-acetylcysteine and taurine. They compared them with people who did not take it, and reported heart and kidney measures. Looking backward at charts can only show a link, not proof that the supplement helped, because the two groups may have differed from the start. The study is tied to a specific commercial product, which is a further reason to treat the result cautiously.
