The presence of urinary protein can be due to physiologic factors such as strenuous exercise, and usually requires no treatment. It may also be due to pathologic factors, such as glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy, membranous nephropathy and so on. ACEI or ARB drugs such as valsartan can be added to reduce urinary protein, and glucocorticoids such as prednisone or immune mechanism agents such as cyclosporine can also be added according to the type of pathology.
1. Physiological factors: the appearance of urinary protein can be seen in excessive exercise and other conditions, usually after removing the causative factors can return to normal, usually without treatment.
2. Pathological factors: elevated urine protein can also be seen in impaired glomerular filtration, and or tubular reabsorption capacity decline, such as diabetic nephropathy, membranous nephropathy, etc., preferred ACEI and ARB drugs, such as valsartan, captopril, etc., to slow the progression of the disease by lowering the blood pressure and reducing the urinary protein effect.
In addition, glucocorticoids such as prednisone, or immunosuppressants such as cyclosporine can be chosen to treat the primary disease according to the type of pathology, thus controlling urinary protein.
The above medications need to be used under the guidance of a doctor and should not be adjusted on their own. It is recommended to consult a doctor to find out the cause of the urinary protein and follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment.
