1.Subjects belonging to the age group 30 to 70.
2. Patients belonging to both sexes.
3. Patients with mild (below 90 mL/min per 1.73m2) to moderate renal dysfunction
or patients who fulfil the diagnostic criteria of chronic kidney disease, GFR <60 mL/min per 1·73m² or Albuminuria (albumin: creatinine ratio [ACR] =30mg/g).
4. Patients with disease conditions that poses a risk to Renal function (long standing Diabetics, Hypertensives)
5. Patients who have been consuming nephrotoxic drugs
1. End stage renal disease ( < 15 mL/min/1.73 m2) or dialysis at time of enrolment
2. History of solid organ or bone marrow transplantation
3. Active malignancy within 24 months prior to screening or metastatic cancer
4. Severe cognitive impairment (Mini Mental State Examination < 10)
5. Any medical or other reason (e.g., known or suspected inability of the patient to comply with the protocol procedure) in the judgement of the investigators, that the patient is unsuitable for the study
6. Patients who need emergency management.
