In the clinical, chronic kidney function failure is known as the chronic renal failure, it is the result of deterioration of a variety of chronic kidney disease. Chronic renal failure may develop into uremia. Failure patient’s mouth often has peculiar smell, why?

About peculiar smell, different people have different opinions. Some people think it smells like ammonia, piss, and other people think it smells like chemical fertilizer, stink.

Chronic renal failure is an irreversible process, but it is not an incurable disease. With the development of science (such as dialysis and renal transplantation), many patients will live much longer.
The common etiologies of kidney failure are glomerulonephritis, interstitial nephritis, high blood pressure, diabetes and obstructed kidney disease. In addition, polycystic kidney disease, hereditary kidney disease and sickle cell disease are more common.

If patient’s condition is improved, the urine smell in the mouth is small. Because patient’s kidney function is damaged, the toxin inside body like urea nitrogen can’t discharge, accumulate in the body. The urea is broken into ammonia by urease of bacteria in intestinal tract, and this situation would stimulate the gastrointestinal mucosa, so the mouth would emit a strange smell, commonly known as “urine smell”. http://www.crf-cure.com/FAQ/44.html
