Treatment of Membranous Lupus Nephritis

Membranous Lupus Nephritis flares up and hurt patients’ kidneys greatly. If not taking an effective treatment, many people would lose their lives due to seriously damaged kidneys. So choosing a good treatment is very important for patients with membranous lupus nephritis.

In order to give a good direction, a successful treatment of membranous lupus nephritis will be listed in the following:

Blood purification. When lupus starts, disordered immune system will send out many antibodies to attack healthy body cells. So they will have many complications, such as chest pain when taking a deep breath, fatigue, fever, hair loss, mouth sores, skin rash, brain and nervous system, heart disease, kidney disease and so on. Through blood purification, all of these complications can be greatly remitted.

Immunodepression. Many people with lupus nephritis are taking immunosuppressive agents to block the renal inflammation in order to reduce kidney damage. Protein in urine or other indexes will turn to normal after this step. However, most people have side effects or their other parts of body may be hurt by these drugs.
Immune tolerance. It is an strange therapy for patients. In fact, it is very simple and mainly makes full use of Immunodepression scientifically to keep the inflammation silent so as to protect kidneys.

Immune regulation. Most therapies may stop in the step of Immunodepression. And they think restraint of inflammation is enough for kidney protection. However, the disordered immune system will strike kidney again, so long-term usage of immunosuppressive agent bring about many side effects to them.

Thereby we work out and develop a therapy of immune regulation. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy and oral Chinese decoction are mainly used to tone functions of organs and tissues. Once their immune system is kept well, lupus nephritis would not flare up.


Immune protection. It is a further therapy to improve immune system. In this step, Immunotherapy is used and new healthy immune cells can be produced to rebuild a wonderful immune system. Besides, if their kidneys lose much function, they also can provide kidney cells to kidneys and improve patients’ GFR. In this way, their lupus nephritis can be treated from the root.
