Hello,

I have gone through your question and understand your concern. Stop using any form of drugs right away and consider seeing a GP at the earliest to rule out kidney injury due to drug abuse. Cranberry juice does not help with kidney injury and any delay may lead to irreversible damage to kidney.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ayesha Shareef
