The drug of choice for nephrotic syndrome

Kidneys are very important to us. If there is a problem with the kidneys, the whole body may feel uncomfortable. Nephrotic syndrome is a relatively common disease that many people have experienced. Moreover, the symptoms of nephrotic syndrome are not obvious and can easily be ignored. Once nephrotic syndrome is discovered, it must be treated promptly. So, what is the drug of choice for nephrotic syndrome?

Nephrotic syndrome requires symptomatic medication to relieve the lesions. Many patients will find that local redness and swelling symptoms will improve to a certain extent after using hormone drugs. If the patient has symptoms of skin infection, some antibiotics are needed to relieve the symptoms. Patients who are not sensitive to hypertension also need to use some diuretics, and the treatment effect is also good. Patients can also be given drugs that enhance their immunity, and the combined use of drugs has a good therapeutic effect.

The use of hormones can effectively relieve the lesions of nephrotic syndrome. Of course, some patients will have a certain resistance to hormones. In this case, methylprednisolone can be used, which is administered intravenously. It has a certain anti-inflammatory effect and can quickly induce the protein to turn negative. This treatment method is generally for patients in the early stages and requires large doses of medication to maintain the efficacy. However, the side effects of hormones are very obvious. Some patients will have symptoms such as high blood pressure, heart rhythm disorders, and gastrointestinal ulcers after taking the medicine. Some patients will have symptoms such as gastrointestinal bleeding.

You must pay attention to your personal diet and health care. Some patients will have symptoms of bacterial infection. At the same time, nursing work should be strengthened. Patients should take medication under the guidance of a doctor and cannot stop taking medication at will. Patients should eat some milk, eggs, etc., and also need to supplement some vitamins. Finally, I would like to remind all friends with nephrotic syndrome to pay attention to rest more, avoid overwork, and ensure adequate sleep.
