Prostatitis is the most common male disease in urology, which is not easy to cure.A number of measures are required to reduce pain, normalize the urination process and return the prostate to its normal size.Treatment includes medication, special massage and physiotherapeutic procedures.Tablets are selected depending on the form of prostatitis.
Tablets for different types of prostatitis
If the cause of the disease is bacteria, then antibiotics are prescribed.Tablets with a wide sector of action are considered important:
- cephalosporins;
- penicillins;
- fluoroquinolones.
The first group of drugs is mainly administered by injection.The second and third groups are available in tablet form.
In case of acute prostatitis, it is first necessary to reduce the pain and prescribe the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.Baralgin is often recommended for pain relief.If the treatment is carried out at home, it is prescribed in tablets.In the hospital, injections are given more often.
The viral form of prostatitis is quite rare.It usually develops in people with very weak immune systems.The disease is caused by herpes virus, influenza virus, papilloma virus.In addition to drugs that improve blood circulation, antiviral tablets are prescribed.It is mandatory to take medications and vitamins that increase immunity.
Groups of medications for the treatment of prostatitis
Pain pills
They are needed mainly for acute forms of the disease.Antispasmodics are used that relax the smooth muscles of blood vessels and increase blood microcirculation.This reduces inflammation and acts as a pain reliever.
In addition, analgesics are prescribed.They relieve pain only for a few hours, so continuous use is required.The above drugs solve another problem - they normalize the condition of a compressed urethra, an inflamed and enlarged prostate gland.If the effect should be as fast as possible, for example, in case of severe pain, then it is better to use candles.They act faster.
If it is necessary to relax the muscles of the perineum, muscle relaxants are prescribed.
Improving blood circulation
Tablets to improve blood circulation are almost always prescribed, as prostatitis is often caused by congestion.They do not allow the body to fully heal and do not allow antibacterial drugs to work in full force.Therefore, an angioprotector is prescribed, which improves microcirculation and oxygen supply to all cells.Increases the elasticity of platelets and red blood cells.
Alpha - adrenergic blockers
This group of drugs includes tablets and other forms of drugs aimed at relaxing the smooth muscles of the urethra and bladder neck.The course of taking adrenergic blockers is quite long, but you must remember that such tablets are not intended to treat, but to eliminate unpleasant symptoms.Particularly effective for chronic urinary retention.
5-alpha reductase inhibitors may also be used for treatment.The action of these drugs is aimed at reducing the volume of the prostate and increasing the power of urine flow.It is often used for chronic forms, taken for at least six months.
Homeopathic remedies
Homeopathy is unlikely to help with the acute form of prostatitis, but may act as an additional treatment for the chronic form or for prevention.A specialist will choose the most suitable drug.
Features of taking pills
A man must complete the course of treatment to the end.The absence of symptoms does not mean that the prostate is back to normal.If this is not done, the inflammation will become chronic.
Medicines are chosen only after examination.The doctor takes into account the presence of microflora in the stain, clinical signs and the patient's complaints of pain.Depending on this, the man should receive antibacterial, anti-inflammatory treatment.Recently, bioregulatory peptides are often prescribed for recovery after treatment.They improve the regeneration of prostate cells.
There is a wide variety of drugs to combat prostatitis.But only a few are right for you.You cannot prescribe treatment yourself.This can cause sexual dysfunction, which will be difficult to overcome in the future.
