CKD has 5 stages its only last that's 5th stage that we advise what is called as renal replacement therapy in the form of either kidney transplant or some form of dialysis. Short of this patients can be managed with medications if they do not want two of the above modalities ,that too varies from patient to patient and can be decided by the treating nephrologist.
