Obsessive–compulsive disorder
A form of psychotherapy called "cognitive behavioral therapy" (CBT) and psychotropic medications are first-line treatments for OCD. Other forms of psychotherapy, such as psychodynamic and psychoanalysis may help in managing some aspects of the disorder, but in 2007 the American Psychiatric Association (APA) noted a lack of controlled studies showing their effectiveness "in dealing with the core symptoms of OCD". The fact that many individuals do not seek treatment may be due in part to stigma associated with OCD.
Minimal change disease
Treatment guidelines for adults is fairly limited, largely based on studies done on children. The mainline therapy is also corticosteroid therapy with other immunosuppressants as possible alternatives though, there is very little data on the these alternatives' efficacy. Other medications such as ACE inhibitors to reduce the amount of protein in the urine or statins to decrease high levels of cholesterol seen with nephrotic syndrome are generally unnecessary. ACE inhibitors may be considered in people with MCD who also have high blood pressure.
