Patient's question:
I have nephrotic syndrome. Since the disease was diagnosed, I have been taking medicine and it has been almost two weeks. But I still feel a bit puffy. I want to know how long it will take for this disease to get better?Doctor's answer:
Nephrotic syndrome has five pathological classifications. Generally, when taking medication, it may take about one year to gradually recover, but the specific course of the disease also depends on the treatment method chosen by the patient. Treating nephrotic syndrome requires oral diuretics to reduce water retention and also requires increasing urine protein. If the patient has high blood pressure, oral angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors are needed to reduce blood pressure. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
