Idiopathic membranous nephropathy in patients with diabetes mellitus: a diagnostic and therapeutic quandary!

Abstract

Patients with iMN coexisting with diabetes exhibit a poor response to the MP regimen. Treatment-related toxicity is less common with MMF in comparison with the MP regimen and tacrolimus-based regimen. An almost similar response was noted with MMF and tacrolimus-based regimen but there was more withdrawal from treatment due to toxicities observed in the latter.
