Abstract
Chronic renal failure, a consequence of chronic kidney disease, trauma, immune disorder, and certain other conditions, is a growing public health concern worldwide. Often causing high health care costs but yielding poor outcomes, kidney disease is the ninth leading cause of death in the United States, and is growing in incidence in other industrialized nations. All individuals with GFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 for 3 months are classified as having chronic kidney disease, irrespective of the presence or absence of kidney damage. Ayurvedic text have also described various categories of mutraroga like mutraghata, mutrakricchr, ashmari and wide range of herbo mineral drugs as therapeutic measures. This clinical observation was undertaken to notice the action of Ayurvedic drugs in the management of CRF on a 69 years old patient. Patient was advised Gomutra, Gokshur seed decoction and Gokshuradi Guggula with Varunadi kwath anupan for regularly two months. Significant improvement in all subjective as well as objective parameters was noted.

Summary
The regulation of blood pressure and intraglomerular hemodynamics, solute and water transport, acid-base balance, and removal of drug metabolites are all accomplished by intricate mechanisms of renal response. A consequence of chronic kidney disease, trauma, immune disorder, and certain other conditions, is a growing public health concern worldwide. Often causing high health care costs but yielding poor outcome kidney disease is the ninth leading cause of death in the United States, and is growing in incidence in other industrialized nations.[1] It has been recently estimated that in India, the incidence rate of end stage renal disease (ESRD) to be 229 per million population (pmp) and more than 1,00000 new patients enter renal replacement programs annually. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) encompasses a spectrum of different pathophysiologic processes associated with abnormal kidney function and a progressive decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
