Conclusion:
We have given every detail of this case. How beautifully; homeopathic medicines corrected his immune system thereby preventing his relapses. Homeopathy is a boon in Nephrotic syndrome. 
A wonderful combination of conventional and homeopathic treatment helps to unwind the child from this dreaded disease. At Life Force, we never regulate the dose of steroids. The treating nephrologists reduce them as the disease activity reduces. So This case illustrates that homeopathy is highly effective in treating Nephrotic syndrome successfully and safely without any side effects.
