Abstract: Acute kidney injury is described as a loss of renal excretory function that occurs suddenly.
AKI is one of several ailments grouped together as acute kidney diseases and disorders (AKD), in which
progressive degradation of kidney function or persistent renal dysfunction is associated with irreversible
loss of kidney cells and nephrons, potentially leading to chronic kidney disease (CKD). The prevalence
and incidence of KDs are assessed in light of population disparities in the prevalence of risk factors such
as diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. However, the presence of these associated illnesses does not fully
explain the increased rate of progression of chronic renal disease in high-risk patients (CKD). The development
of renal disease is accompanied by a decline in renal function, which eventually leads to renal
failure. The current status of diagnostic testing does not allow for accurate early disease diagnosis, prognosis,
or therapy efficacy monitoring. Despite significant advances in care and understanding of the causes
of acute renal failure (ARF), many aspects of ARF remain controversial, confusing, and uncertain.
Accurate information on the disease's prevalence, genesis, and clinical manifestations is required to successfully
advocate for enough funding and resources to manage the disease. Herbal components for the
treatment of a variety of kidney disorders, and the page includes a list of plants that are good for kidney
treatment. This review focuses on several herbal products used to treat renal problems. It is clear from this
study that medicinal plants play an important role in the fight against many different diseases. Several
different plants and plant extracts have been shown to have beneficial effects in treating renal disease.
These medications have great promise for use in treating kidney damage because of their nephroprotective,
cytoprotective, immunomodulatory, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and reducing effects on oxidative
stress, renal hypertension, and blood toxins such as urea, creatinine, and others. Therefore, India's
traditional medicine offers a wide variety of medications that can be utilized in renal illnesses due to their
effectiveness in both treating the ailment and restoring normal kidney function. Therefore, it is suggested
that additional research be conducted to learn many aspects and mechanisms of medications.
