French term or phrase: traitement d'entrée
I know how to convey TRAITEMENT DE SORTIE / Discharge Prescription but I do not have an idea for the other one. It has been used above all the medications listed in a letter and the medications have been given to a patient after having admitted him to hospital. I understand that it is about the treatment used on a first day to begin with. Any ideas?

Let me explain a bit. I have kidney disease for over 20 years. if I am admitted to a hospital due to my kidney problems, my initial therapy always a stimulation of my bad kidneys (forcing them to work) and my adjuvant therapy is usually simultaneously to initial includes a lot of intravenous liquids, literally "washing" my kindeys and urethra. The second-line therapy will be chosen after urine analysis and laboratory blood test results which gives a clear enough picture about the present status. But regardless of it the initial treatment is always to ensure the "maintenance" of my kidneys.

Adjuvant therapy is therapy given in addition to the primary, main, or initial treatment, but simultaneously (as opposed to second-line therapy). Neoadjuvant therapy is therapy that is begun before the main therapy. Thus one can consider surgical excision of a tumor as the first-line therapy for a certain type and stage of cancer even though radiotherapy is used before it; the radiotherapy is neoadjuvant (chronologically first but not primary in the sense of the main event).

Dear @Asker, if it is obvious from the context, please add "at admission". Thank you for letting me know.

It might be what the patient usually takes at home.

otherwise, they might say "traitement aux urgences" or something similar.

If it is medication given at the hospital, then, it is the 'treatment initiated'

Asker: I will go for it. Thank you.

Asker: Do you think it is wrong if I do not mention at admission? What if this results from the context? If there is information before, that the patient is on the ward and after tests the treatment was initiated, this surely can be read from the context. What do you think?
