What Causes Increase In Creatinine Level After Taking BP Medication?

Dtpa scan is more indicated
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query
I were to be your doctor I would have asked for a Dtpa scan instead of an MRI. Dtpa scan will tell us if there are any ectopic ( misplaced ) kidneys better than an MRI and also tell us how much that single kidney is functioning. I don't think MRI will be very useful just to know if there is another kidney
Serum creatinine tends to go up when uncontrolled hypertension is brought under control. Please continue the antihypertensives, creat will come back to baseline slowly. Not taking the medication is more harmful than not taking
Additionally I would also want him to get a urine routine done and also eyes checked for hypertensive changes
I hope I was of help, i am sure you have many doubts please get back to me I will be happy to answer them
Regards
