The cause of this is due, in part, to the increased presence of toxins in the body. Insomnia can be a sign of kidney disease.

Side effects of chemical drugs

Chemical causes of insomnia are extremely common in IgA Nephropathy patients. A huge number of chemical medications disrupt sleep either directly or indirectly. The complications caused by chemical drugs are not only extremely common but also highly predictable and increase in frequency and likelihood as the number of medications, supplements, and herbs increases.

High blood pressure

As IgA Nephropathy develops, the patient experiences high blood pressure as an underlying result of the failure of the kidneys to function properly. Chronic high blood pressure can put a stress on the heart, which, in turn, causes chemicals in the brain to inhibit sleep.

Dialysis

When IgA Nephropathy develops end stage, dialysis may be taken and this kidney replacement treatment also may cause insomnia due to leg cramps and leg pain at night.
