  • Title: Cyclosporin therapy for steroid resistant nephrotic focal glomerulosclerosis.
    Author: Windom HH, Fisher M, Neale TJ.
    Journal: N Z Med J; 1990 Mar 28; 103(886):125-6. PubMed ID: 2320338.
    Abstract:
    A young man with focal glomerulosclerosis and severe steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome was treated with oral cyclosporin for six months without histological evidence of drug induced nephrotoxicity. A marked and sustained partial remission of the degree of proteinuria one year following cessation of treatment was not accompanied by a deterioration in renal function. Cyclosporin may have a role, as yet not fully defined, in the treatment of steroid-resistant or dependent nephrotic syndrome.
