How to treat nephrotic syndrome in children

Patient's question:

Got it for two years, protein leakage, protein 2 plus, need more in the first morning

Doctor's answer:

Disease Analysis:
Children with nephrotic syndrome commonly suffer from minimal change disease, which requires at least one to two years of hormone treatment. Premature discontinuation of medication or irregular dosing can lead to disease recurrence, repeated episodes, and permanent kidney damage.
Advice:
If urine protein remains positive after 8 months of hormone treatment, it is recommended to undergo a kidney biopsy to determine the pathological type for targeted treatment.
