  • Title: Use of high-dose prednisolone to overcome rifampicin-induced corticosteroid non-responsiveness in childhood nephrotic syndrome.
    Author: Barman H, Dass R, Duwarah SG.
    Journal: Saudi J Kidney Dis Transpl; 2016 Jan; 27(1):157-60. PubMed ID: 26787586.
    Abstract:
    Inducing remission in nephrotic children on anti-tubercular therapy is difficult due to the increased metabolism of prednisolone induced by rifampicin. We report a child with nephrotic syndrome treated successfully with an increased dose of steroids without discontinuing anti-tubercular therapy.
