How is congenital nephrotic syndrome in children treated

Patient's question:

What's wrong with the little one? The urine is yellow, and there is edema. Swelling in hands, feet, limbs, and face. Pale and thin. Seen many doctors but no definitive results. Unable to diagnose. Until finally at Beijing 303 Hospital, the conclusion was that it was congenital nephrotic syndrome in children.

Doctor's answer:

The main drugs for the treatment of proteinuria are corticosteroids (such as prednisone and prednisolone) and cytotoxic agents (such as cyclophosphamide) or immunosuppressants (such as cyclosporine A, tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and leflunomide). Other possible measures to reduce urinary protein include traditional Chinese medicine (such as Tripterygium wilfordii) and immunostimulants.
Since the child is suffering from nephrotic syndrome in children, the mother must take the child to the hospital immediately for treatment to avoid blindly using advertisements for drugs. It is necessary to use medications rationally. For parents, it is essential to pay timely attention to the child's condition and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
