How to Reduce Protein Leakage for FSGS and Nephrotic Syndrome
FSGS is one common cause of Nephrotic Syndrome, while protein leakage or proteinuria is one typical sign of Nephrotic Syndrome. If patients’ Nephrotic Syndrome is due to FSGS, they should take action to reduce their protein leakage actively. This can improve patients’ prognosis.
The underlying cause of protein leakage for these patients
Normally, kidneys are responsible for removing waste substances and keeping useful nutrients in the body. This kidney function is achieved by glomerular filtration and renal tubular reabsorption. When glomerular filtration membrane is damaged, excessive amount of protein will leak from kidneys into urine and renal tubules fail to reabsorb this amount of protein efficiently.
How to reduce protein leakage for patients with FSGS and Nephrotic Syndrome?
According to the above analysis, we would like to recommend the following methods to reduce protein leakage.
- Choose high-quality protein: Protein leakage may induce low plasma protein osmotic colloid pressure, malnutrition, fatigue, and so on. From this point, patients should select high-quality protein to meet the body’s need.
- Take correct medicines: In clinic, many medicines and drugs have a quick and obvious effect on easing protein leakage. The key is to choose correct medicines. ACEI and ARBs can not only lower high blood pressure but also alleviate proteinuria, while steroids and immunosuppressants can manage protein leakage through inhibiting inflammatory reactions within kidneys. Check with doctor online to determine which medicine is suitable for you.
- Repair glomerular filtration membrane: The fundamental therapy is to deal with protein leakage from the root cause, the impaired glomeruli. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is just one therapy that focuses on protecting the remaining kidney cells and rescuing the damaged ones. Therefore, it is one great therapy for patients with FSGS and Nephrotic Syndrome.
