Here is every word Neff says in the video.

1. Hi, I'm Neff! Let's talk about pills that can help protect your kidneys.
2. Feeling fine? We may still add a pill. Kidney disease often has no signs. And some pills can help slow it down.
3. Some blood pressure pills are called ACE inhibitors and ARBs. They can help protect your kidneys, even if your blood pressure is not high.
4. These pills are not safe in pregnancy. Are you pregnant, or planning to be? Tell us.
5. Some newer pills can help protect your kidneys and heart, too. We'll talk with you about which ones fit you.
6. After you start a new pill, we may check your blood. That helps us keep it safe for you.
7. Are you sick with throwing up or diarrhea? Call us about your medicines. Some may need a change while you're sick.
8. Ask us what each pill is for. Don't start or stop a medicine without asking us.
