Resources & Product Guides
Free tools first, then "how to choose". This is not a shop: no prices, ratings or countdowns — only buying principles, free resources and, in future, a small number of reviewed products.
Daily living aids
Pill organisers, blood-pressure monitors, scales — items for everyday self-care. Read "how to choose" before deciding whether you need one.
Start with our free tools
How to choose (principles)
- Blood-pressure monitors: choose an upper-arm model listed on validatebp.org or STRIDE BP; wrist and finger devices are not recommended.
- Pill organisers: match compartments to your actual dosing schedule; if dialysis-day doses differ, pick one with removable daily strips.
- Scales: dialysis patients track the daily trend — 0.1 kg precision is enough; body-fat features are unnecessary.

Travel & medical-document organisers
For travel dialysis or care abroad: holders for records, medication lists, insurance and dialysis prescriptions.
Start with our free tools
How to choose (principles)
- Generate your documents first with our free Dialysis Passport and Patient Travel Kit, then decide whether you need a physical organiser.
- Travelling with medicines: original packaging plus an English medication list; cold-chain drugs (e.g. EPO) need a cooler that can log temperature.

Nutrition products: information & how to choose
Principles only — how to read labels and what to avoid. We do not recommend individual supplements; kidney patients should ask their care team first.
Start with our free tools
How to choose (principles)
- Check potassium, phosphorus and sodium, and look for phosphate additives (ingredients containing "phos-"); added phosphate in many protein powders and supplements is almost fully absorbed.
- Avoid anything claiming to "detox", "protect" or "reverse" kidney disease; herbal mixtures (e.g. aristolochic-acid sources) and undisclosed ingredients carry the highest risk.
- Transplant recipients: grapefruit, St John's wort, high-dose vitamin C/E and others can interact with anti-rejection drugs — ask your transplant team before any new supplement.
- Our Interaction Lookup covers common interactions, but does not replace a pharmacist.

Products that have passed review and have a confirmed affiliate link will appear here. There are none yet.
How to choose (principles)
