Overview
The use of albumin helps improvement of HRS.
Secondary Prevention
Intravenous albumin
A randomized controlled trial found that intravenous albumin on the day of admission and on hospital day 3 can reduce renal impairment.[1]
Pentoxifylline
Pentoxifylline, phosphodiesterase inhibitor improves kidney functioning status in patients of hepatorenal syndrome.[2]
