ABSTRACT:
The progression of chronic renal failure in humans may be retarded by administration of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in effective amounts. The administration of DHEA is preferably oral at a dose of about 400 to 1600 mg/day. Patients suffering from severe chronic renal failure are also preferably maintained on a protein-restricted diet during DHEA administration.
