What Does Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) Entail?

Meds for Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome

HUS can result in long-term complications or mortality, necessitating hospitalization and close monitoring by a healthcare professional. Medications can help manage HUS symptoms and prevent complications. If your HUS causes permanent kidney damage, your physician may prescribe medications to reduce inflammation, lower your blood pressure, and prevent or delay the progression of kidney damage.

Notably, antibiotics are not always the best treatment option for patients with Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome. Antibiotics have exacerbated HUS in some studies due to their effects on gut bacteria. There is a more effective method to prevent this life-threatening disorder using medications such as;

The drug Eculizumab

If you have atypical HUS (caused by a genetic mutation) or develop complications, eculizumab (Soliris) can help prevent further blood vessel injury. Eculizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody that acts as a terminal complement inhibitor, is used to treat HUS. Because meningitis is a potentially dangerous adverse effect of eculizumab, a vaccination is required for its use.
