What medicine should I take for kidney deficiency edema

Kidney deficiency is a symptom of kidney disease. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, it belongs to the failure of kidney yang. This situation often causes edema, which is quite harmful to patients. From the perspective of Western medicine, it is because the decline in kidney function leads to more water content in the blood and decreased glomerular function. At this time, timely treatment must be carried out and the doctor's advice must be followed in terms of medication.
