Despite the years passed from the description of nephrotic syndrome, the development of pharmaceutical industry and of the drugs available to face this glomerulopathy, still there are patients very difficult to treat, who oblige us to use different drugs without achieve exactly the response in each case. Patients non-respondent to steroids are a special group and of difficult control, but those having frequent relapses or cortico-dependent also oblige us to use another drugs with a special toxicity and non-precise response. Thus, this is considered an interesting review on drugs more frequent used and on prescription of each of them. Without exhaust the subject, we try to offer the pediatricians a possible guide for treatment of cases of difficult control.
