hi see
this is a condition which has more follow ups and less medicines. this condition may show improvement not with medicines but with therapy if sustained for 2-3 years starting earliest possible.
the medicines given are to treat associated conditions that also need to be treated. dose may need to be increased or decreased over 6 months to get titrated response.
