Overview

Patients with polycystic kidney disease are treated with lisinopril or telmisartan for control of hypertension, tolvaptan for slowing disease progression, hydration, analgesia and bed rest. The treatment is targeted more towards managing symptoms and disease complications rather than slowing cyst formation.

Medical Therapy

Polycystic kidney disease

  • 1 Hypertension
    • 1.1 Adult
      • Preferred regimen (1): Lisinopril 5-10 mg PO q24h (Maximum dose 40mg in 24h)[2][3]
      • Alternative regimen (1): Telmisartan 20-40 mg PO q24h (Maximum dose 80mg in 24h)[4]
  • 2 Slowing disease progression (Vasopressin receptor antagonist)
    Note (1): Before initiating therapy fluid intake needs to be restricted for 10-14 hours.
    • 2.1 Adult
      • Preferred regimen (1): Tolvaptan 60mg PO q24h for 7 days (45mg upon awakening and 15mg 8hrs later)[5][6]
        After 7 days increase to 90mg PO for 7days (60mg upon awakening and 30mg 8hrs later)
        After 7 days increase to 120mg PO (90mg upon awakening and 30mg 8hrs later)
  • 3 Hematuria
  • 4 Dietary sodium restriction
    • Restrict dietary sodium intake to a maximum of 2 grams per day[7]
    • This slows progression of disease and helps with the control of hypertension as well[8]
