What are the treatment measures for nephrotic syndrome

The kidneys are important organs in our body. Once they become diseased, the consequences can be quite serious. In daily life, many people suffer from nephrotic syndrome, which has a serious impact on their health. They are more concerned about the treatment of nephrotic syndrome and hope to recover as soon as possible. So, what are the treatment measures for nephrotic syndrome? Let’s take a closer look below.

1. Drug treatment

This is the most commonly used treatment for nephrotic syndrome, especially for patients with milder symptoms. When choosing drug treatment, you should choose drugs that cause less damage to the kidneys. Moreover, for patients with more serious renal pathological changes, the combined use of hormones and immunosuppression can be used clinically for treatment, which can minimize the side effects of the drugs, and the synergistic effects between the drugs are beneficial to the treatment of this disease.

2. Symptomatic treatment

No matter what disease is being treated, it must be targeted to achieve the best results. In the treatment of nephrotic syndrome, symptomatic treatment is carried out according to the cause of the disease and the symptoms, so as to effectively control the leakage of protein and hematuria in patients and avoid further deterioration of the disease. Therefore, when treating this disease, people should pay attention to starting from the cause of the disease, treating the disease from the root and avoiding recurrence.

3. Combination of Chinese and Western Medicine

In the treatment of nephrotic syndrome, in addition to Western medicine, doctors will also use Chinese medicine for treatment. The use of traditional Chinese medicine to treat nephrotic syndrome has the effects of directly eliminating protein, counteracting the toxic side effects of western medicine, and preventing recurrent infections. At present, many nephrology experts have reached a consensus that the combination of Chinese and Western medicine in treating kidney disease is more effective than Western medicine alone.

The above is an introduction to the treatment measures for nephrotic syndrome. I hope it will be helpful to patients. Nephrotic syndrome is a relatively complicated disease. Although there are many treatment methods, the conditions of different patients are quite different. After becoming ill, it is best to go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment and choose a treatment that suits you so that you can recover as soon as possible.
