简要总结
This open-label randomized controlled trial will be conducted over 18 months aiming to evaluate the effectiveness to reduced doses of prednisolone during relapses in steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) in children aged 2-13 years. The intervention group will receive low dose prednisolone 1.5mg/kg/day until remission, followed bt 1.5mg/kg alternate day for 2 weeks and 1mg/kg alternate day for next 2 weeks and the control group will receive the standard regimen 2mg/kg/day until remission,followed by 1.5 mg /kg alternate day for 4 weeks.
