Abstract EN
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 antitubercular therapy.
