Prostatitis is the most common men's disease in urology, which is not easy to cure.To relieve pain, normalize the urge to urinate and return the prostate to normal size, a number of measures are required.Treatment includes medications, special massages 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, antibiotics are prescribed.Tablets with a wide range of action are considered relevant:
- cephalosporins;
- penicillins;
- Fluoroquinols.
The first group of drugs is administered primarily by injection.The second and third groups are available in tablet form.
With acute prostatitis, pain relief and the prescription of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are initially required.Baralgin is often recommended for pain relief.If treatment is done at home, it is prescribed in tablet form.Injections are given more frequently in the hospital.
The viral form of prostatitis is quite rare.It usually develops in people with very weak immune systems.The disease is caused by herpes viruses, influenza viruses and papilloma viruses.In addition to drugs that improve blood circulation, antiviral tablets are prescribed.Taking medications and vitamins to strengthen immunity is mandatory.
Groups of drugs for the treatment of prostatitis
Painkillers
They are particularly needed 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 has a pain-relieving effect.
In addition, painkillers are prescribed.They only relieve pain for a few hours, so constant use is required.The above drugs solve another problem: they normalize the condition of a compressed urethra, inflamed and enlarged prostate.If you want the effect to occur as quickly as possible, for example in the case of severe pain, then it is better to use candles.You act faster.
If relaxation of the perineal muscles is required, muscle relaxants are prescribed.
Improved blood circulation
Tablets to improve blood circulation are almost always prescribed, as prostatitis is often caused by congestion.They do not allow the organ to fully recover and prevent antibacterial drugs from having their full effect.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 medications aimed at relaxing the smooth muscles of the urethra and bladder neck.Taking adrenergic blockers takes quite a long time, but you must remember that such tablets are aimed not at treatment, but at eliminating unpleasant symptoms.Particularly effective for chronic urinary retention.
5-alpha-reductase inhibitors can also be used for treatment.The action of these drugs is aimed at reducing the volume of the prostate and increasing the strength of urine flow.Is often used for chronic forms and should be taken for at least six months.
Homeopathic remedies
Homeopathy is unlikely to help with the acute form of prostatitis, but may work as an additional treatment for the chronic form or for prevention.A specialist will select the most suitable drug.
Features of taking pills
A man must complete the treatment to the end.The absence of symptoms does not mean that the prostate has returned to normal.If this does not happen, the inflammation becomes chronic.
Medicines are selected only after the examination.The doctor takes into account the presence of microflora in the smear, clinical symptoms and the patient's pain complaints.Depending on this, the man needs to undergo antibacterial, anti-inflammatory treatment.Recently, bioregulatory peptides are often prescribed for recovery after treatment.They improve the regeneration of prostate cells.
There are a variety of medications to combat prostatitis.But only a few are suitable for you.You cannot prescribe treatment yourself.This can lead to sexual dysfunction that will be difficult to overcome in the future.
