Acthar: Those interested will be started on Acthar 80 units twice weekly for 6 months. Those with minor adverse effects such as weight gain, worsening hypertension, or glucose intolerance will have their doses reduced to 40 unit twice weekly. Those with major adverse effects such as allergy or infection will discontinue the medication. If the primary endpoint of 50% reduction in proteinuria or total proteinuria less than 150mg/day is not reached, therapy may be continued for a total of 12 months.0 / 20 / 20 / 2
