What medication is best for treating Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis?

Patient's question:

Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've also noticed some swelling in my body. I feel weak all over. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's kidney disease. Could you please tell me what medication is best for treating purpura nephritis?

Doctor's answer:

Hematuria nephritis is a disease that occurs when allergic purpura damages the capillaries in the kidneys. Patients may experience hematuria and proteinuria, and it may also lead to kidney failure. The treatment of this disease primarily relies on the use of hormones, along with antiallergic medications. Patients can also use drugs such as vitamin C to stabilize blood vessel permeability. After the condition improves, regular monitoring of data is required.
