Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query. From the details given it is clear that your father has a serious kidney problem. He needs urgent hospitalisation and dialysis. At such high levels of creatinine and and urea, he needs to be put on only insulin. Oral drug needs to be discontinued. It is better to follow the advice given by the treating physician. Adding any further drug or drugs is dangerous. Thanks.
