Patient's question:
My uncle has been experiencing pain on both sides of his waist since this summer. Additionally, his legs are slightly swollen, and it takes a long time to regain firmness even after pressing them with fingers. There is also some blood in his urine. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor diagnosed him with nephrotic syndrome. What kind of medication should be taken for nephrotic syndrome?Doctor's answer:
If the diagnosis is nephrotic syndrome, it is recommended to use hormone drugs for treatment if it is severe. Additionally, many immunosuppressants can be used in coordination for treatment. If there is a contagious condition, it is also suggested to use anti-infective drugs for treatment. If hypoproteinemia reoccurs, pay attention to digesting protein, etc. It is important to prevent colds and other illnesses in daily life.
