Clinically, IGA Nephritis is one of the most common disease in China. At
present, the treatment for it is mainly categorized into traditional Chinese
medicine method and western medicine method. Numerous patients have used western
medicine method. How on earth are the therapeutic effects of western medicine
treatment for IgA Nephritis? This question is most concerned by patients. The
detailed introduction is as following:
First of all, we will introduce western medicines commonly used for the
treatment of IgA Nephritis in clinic. They are mainly divided into the following
categories:
1. Immunosuppressant:
Immunosuppressant can profitably control the clinical complications in a
short term and make a temporary control for the inflammation response of kidney
tissues.
2.Anticoagulation, anti-platelet aggregation drugs:
This kind of medicine can resist the abnormal blood clots in the glomerular
and reduce the platelet aggregation so as to slow the formation of blood clots
inside the glomerular. It also has certain effect on the anticoagulation and the
suppression of blood clots’ composition. These medicines contain dipyridamole,
warfarin, LMWH and urokinase.
3. ACEI (angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor) and angiotensin receptor
antagonist:
These two kinds of medicine can inhibit angiotensin, relieve the hypertension
caused by the kidney damage and positively maintain patients’ blood pressure in
a certain range in the short term.
4. Glucosidorum Tripterygll Totorum
This medicine is mainly adopted for the patients with IgA Nephropathy who are
complicated by proteinuria and hematuria. After the urine protein turn to be
negative, this medicine can be stopped. Meanwhile, the Chinese medicine
treatment should be prolonged in order to protect and repair the damaged renal
tissues. By this, the urine protein can turn to be negative completely and
proteinuria won’t relapse, even encountering the inducing factors again.
5. Hormone
Prednisone and methylprednisolone can treat the complications such as
proteinuria. The shock therapy of methylprednisolone has a better therapeutic
effect on the IgA Nephritis with plenty of proteinuria and rapid deterioration
of renal function.
How are the therapeutic effects of western medicine for IgA Nephritis?
Generally speaking, the long-term use of above drugs can bring many
side-effects to the patients. In addition, it also influence other organs in the
body. There is no doubt that a proper use of hormone can reduce its
side-effects, but there are also such situations, like insufficient dosage or
too much in the beginning, nonstandard in the process of reducing and so on, in
which the impacts of hormone to patients are the damage to illness condition,
instead of just being counterproductive.
So, more and more IgA Nephritis patients began to look for traditional
Chinese medicine therapy, abandoning the treatment of hormone and western
medicine.
The Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy put forward by renal fibrosis theory
can block patients’ process of renal fibrosis foundamentaly, repair damaged
kidney inherent cells, restrain inflammatory reaction and restore damaged kidney
original structure thus to treat the disease scientifically and effectively.
This treatment method has been recognized by more and more patients because of
its good therapeutic effects. For more information, please Email us at khkpcn@hotmail.com
