Role of kidneys is very vital to maintain homeostasis of the system. CKD is classified into five stages based on the estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR). CKD is a long-term condition which cannot be completely cured. Treatment focuses on managing underlying conditions , slowing disease progression and addressing complications.  Aim of the study:  Purpose of this study is to encapsulate available knowledge about classification and therapeutic options for patients with Chronic Kidney Disease and End-Stage Kidney Disease. Both old and new treatment methods have been summarized in the following publication. Material and methods:  Literature available in the PubMed database was reviewed using the following keywords: “Chronic kidney disease”, “ACE inhibitors” , “Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blockers", “Diabetic Kidney Disease” ,”End-Stage Kidney Disease”, “Dapagliflozin”,  Conclusions: Chronic Kidney Disease is a condition which is progressive and affects more than 10% of the general population worldwide totaling over 800 million people. There are many causes of chronic kidney disease; therefore, it is important to focus on slowing the progression of the disease, minimizing complications and modifying risk factors.
