How does low blood pressure affect kidneys?

Solution

Effect of low blood pressure on kidneys:

  1. Low blood pressure has been linked to a higher incidence of chronic renal disease.
  2. The blood is filtered to remove toxins and extra fluid. There is less blood flow for filtration when blood pressure is low.
  3. As a result, there is reduced urine production.
  4. If the problem persists, low blood pressure can cause renal problems, including kidney failure.
