Treatment for Membranous Nephropathy & Nephrotic Syndrome

Membranous nephropathy is a disorder with inflammation of nephrons, mainly in adults. It is a significant cause of nephritic syndrome. What is the treatment for membranous nephropathy with nephritic syndrome?

Membranous nephropathy with nephritic syndrome

Nephrotic syndrome is non-specific disease. It is featured with typical signs including heavy protein in urine, edema, hyperlipidemia and hypoproteinemia. It can result from membranous nephropathy. In return, it can accelerate renal function decline significantly.

How does Nephrotic Syndrome occur in membranous nephropathy? Nephrons are the basic functional units in kidneys. Every kidney is composed of one around one million nephrons which can help filter out waste products from body in right condition.

However, in membranous nephropathy, the immune system fails to function normally and attacks the nephrons mistakenly. The abnormal response of immune system can lead to changes and inflammation of nephrons. The impaired nephrons fail to perform function normally, thus resulting in protein in urine. Eventually, nephritic syndrome will be the result.

Treatment for membranous nephropathy with nephritic syndrome

Immunosuppressive agents and hormones are the most commonly used treatment for membranous nephropathy. These medicines can help relieve inflammation to slow down renal function to some extent. However, when there is a triggering factor, the disease will relapse soon.

To treat membranous nephropathy with nephritic syndrome fundamentally and effectively, immunotherapy and Micro-Chinese Medicines Osmotherapy will also be applied besides those commonly used treatment and drugs.

Immunotherapy has been applied to treat a variety of immune-medicated disorders. It can suppress or enhance an immune response to treat disease. In treating membranous nephropathy with nephritic syndrome, immunotherapy can suppress the abnormal activity of immune system and correct the immune dysfunction. If so, no further immune damage will form to nephrons.

Micro-Chinese Medicines Osmotherapy can restore the impaired nephrons to enhance renal function by activating the self-healing system of the body. If the kidneys can function better, nephritic syndrome will be controlled fundamentally.
