History of Present Illness

A 38-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), hypertension (HTN), and dyslipidemia returns to her primary care physician (PCP) for a follow-up visit. At her routine physical examination 3 months ago, her annual nephropathy screening revealed a urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) of 659 mg/g, which was elevated from the previous year’s screening that showed a mildly increased UACR of 145 mg/g and an SCr of 1.2 mg/dL. A second spot urine test from 1 week ago showed a persistently elevated UACR of 673 mg/g. She has returned to the office today to review her lab results and presents with no complaints. She brought with her a list of her medications and self-monitoring blood glucose readings.

Assessment

1. CKD with albuminuria (G3bA3) with inappropriate medication dosing

Supporting Evidence:

Subjective: patient does not report any complaints

Objective: worsening of SCr to 1.6 from 1.2 a year ago, eGFR of 42 mL/min (stage 3 CKD), MACR/UACR 673 up from 659 3 months ago and 145 1 year ago, CrCl = 53 mL/min

(ActualBW = 87 kg, IBW = 59.3 kg, AdjBW = 70.4 kg)

Non-pharmacologic options:

A. remove nephrotoxic agents

B. Dietary recommendations

– diet high in vegetables, fruit, whole grain, fiber, plant based proteins, unsaturated fats and nuts; low in processed meats, refined carbohydrates, and sweetened beverages

– dietary protein should be 0.8g/kg daily

– restrict sodium to < 2000 mg/day

C. Weight reduction

D. Physical exercise

E. Smoking cessation

Pharmacologic options:

A. Blood pressure management: the patient is currently above goal of < 130/80 on HCTZ therapy

Hydrochlorothiazide (current therapy)

Pros: currently tolerating therapy, efficacy with CrCl > 25-30 mL/min, first line therapy for HTN

Cons: electrolyte disturbances

ACE inhibitor (lisinopril)

Pros: slows the progression of kidney disease, first line in patients with CKD and diabetes with albuminuria

Cons: may increase SCr if not stable (AKI risk), cough, hyperkalemia, angioedema risk

ARB (losartan)

Pros: slows the progression of kidney disease,
