Patient's question:
My husband also doesn't have much education, so he has always worked on construction sites. The corrosiveness of their work environment is quite high. Now, he has developed lupus on his hands and also got nephritis. How should lupus nephritis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Patients with lupus nephritis can be treated with immunosuppressive drugs such as cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, tacrolimus, and azathioprine. When necessary, patients can undergo stem cell transplantation, removal of ds-DNA antibodies, IgG, and autoimmune purification of anti-cardiolipin antibodies. However, after treatment, patients still need to appropriately consume vitamin B and vitamin C to alleviate the condition.
