First-line treatments
Glomerular function monitoring
Regular assessment of kidney function through eGFR, proteinuria measurement, and blood pressure tracking.
Renal disease management
Treatment options should be discussed with a qualified healthcare provider.
Renoprotective agents
ACE inhibitors or ARBs to reduce proteinuria and slow progression of glomerular damage associated with corpuscle abnormalities.
Additional treatment options
Protein restriction therapy
Moderate protein intake reduction to decrease glomerular hyperfiltration stress and preserve remaining function.
dietaryBlood pressure control
Lifestyle modifications including reduced sodium intake and regular exercise to maintain optimal blood pressure.
lifestyleTargeted surgical intervention
Surgical removal or repair of severely damaged glomerular structures when conservative measures fail.
