The clearance goals are achieved through the combination of residual kidney function (RKF) and peritoneal clearance. The dialysis prescription should be increased as the RKF declines. IPD has been associated with clinical, economic, and environmental advantages. We emphasize possible better quality of life, fewer mechanical symptoms, lower costs, slight adverse metabolic effects, and less plastic waste and water consumption. The potential benefits for RKF preservation and the lower risk of peritonitis have also been discussed. There are some concerns regarding this strategy, such as inadequate clearance of uremic toxins and\/or severe electrolyte disturbances due to undetected loss of RKF, lower clearance of medium-sized molecules (such as\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\n                    -2-microglobulin) which mostly depends on the total PD dwell time, and patients' reluctance to dose adjustments. Current clinical evidence is based on moderate-quality to low-quality studies and suggests that the outcomes of IPD will be at least identical to those of full dose. This review aims to define IDP, discuss strategies for prescription, and review its advantages and disadvantages according to the current evidence.\n
