Effects of supplementation on pruritus intensity, fatigue, quality of life and anorexia in hemodialysis patients: a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial.

Objectives: Anorexia, fatigue and pruritus are common complications of hemodialysis (HD) patients. Today, the use of medicinal plants is more than synthetic drugs due to their safety. Therefore, we designed a randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the effects of () supplementation on biochemical parameters, pruritus intensity, fatigue, quality of life and anorexia in HD patients

Methods: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was performed on 50 subjects with, aged 55-65 years old.

Effects of supplementation on anorexia in hemodialysis patients: a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial.

Objectives: One of the most important problems of hemodialysis (HD) patients is anorexia due to the lack of proper treatment for it and on the other hand kidney disease is increasing. We designed a randomized controlled clinical trial to investigate the effects of supplementation on anorexia in HD patients.

Materials And Methods: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was carried out on 58 subjects with HD, aged 55-65 years old.
