Prostate inflammation can bring a lot of unpleasant feelings to a man, and make him suffer both physically and mentally. Emitted prostatitis can lead to dangerous consequences, up to infertility, the development of benign and malignant tumors in the organs and tissues, and positive completion. Therefore, timely medical treatment to determine the cause of the inflammatory process and effective treatment play an important role. Nowadays, in the pharmacology market, there are a variety of drugs and effective therapies for treating prostatitis, with different effects, efficacy and prices.
Only through comprehensive methods can successfully cure prostatitis, including the use of drugs, adherence to diet, physical therapy methods, use of folk recipes, elimination of predisposing factors and elimination of the causes of pathological processes. In turn, medical treatment involves the use of drugs designed to eliminate various problems. The drugs used to treat prostatitis come in various dosage forms, and they can combine multiple effects at once.
Dosage form of prostatitis drugs
The drugs for prostatitis are available in the following dosage forms:
- tablets or capsules;
- Injection of medicine;
- Rectal suppositories;
- Micro lysate and drip fluid.
The latter can be made on the basis of natural ingredients and the use of medicines.
Pills
There must be no medicine in the treatment of prostatitis. The treatment of male chronic prostatitis can be carried out with other dosage forms, but only in the remission period. During the worsening period, you must take pills. Since the most common inflammatory process of the prostate gland is caused by infectious agents, treatment must include the use of various types of antibiotics. In addition, in the treatment of all types of prostatitis, the following types of drugs can be used according to the indications of each situation:
- alpha-blockers;
- Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs;
- Muscle relaxants;
- Analgesics;
- Diuretics;
- Hormonal preparations;
- Immunostimulant.
In addition, complex preparations with comprehensive effects on prostatitis have been developed.
Antibiotics
In almost all cases of acute prostatitis caused by pathogenic microorganisms, these drugs are necessary. When the inflammation is caused by hyperemia of the pelvic organs, antibiotics can also be used if the test shows the activity of the so-called non-specific or opportunistic flora.
It is strictly forbidden to take antibiotics by yourself, control your intake, and use such drugs on the advice of friends or the Internet. To determine which drugs are needed in a specific situation, only qualified doctors can be determined based on test results. Some patients require a combination of several antibiotics. Determining the type, dosage, dosage regimen, and duration of the treatment course depends entirely on the ability of the urologist.
The following types of antibiotics can be used to treat prostatitis:
- Fluoroquinolones-destroy the DNA synthesis of pathogenic microorganism cells, thereby inhibiting their life activities;
- Tetracycline-a broad-spectrum antibiotic that can inhibit pathogenic microflora, which is difficult for patients to tolerate;
- Cephalosporins-destroy the cell membranes of pathogenic microorganisms and interfere with their life and reproduction. These antibiotics have many side effects and negative effects on the gastrointestinal tract, so they are almost never prescribed in tabletsMedium, it is recommended to take intramuscular
- Penicillin-Prevents the synthesis of proteins necessary for the establishment of cell structure by microorganisms. Unlike previous funds, these funds have almost no side effects and are made into tablets.
- Macrolides-The least toxic drug to the human body, which is very well tolerated by patients, but is rarely prescribed due to its unproven effectiveness in the treatment of prostatitis.
The reason why the gradual intake of antibiotics is required according to certain regimens and certain doses is the particularity of their effects. Only after reaching a certain concentration (which must be replenished regularly) does the drug begin to inhibit pathogenic microorganisms. To completely destroy it, it takes ten days to one month. If the course of the disease is not completed, as in some patients, when they feel well, the infectious agent will stay in the body, gain resistance, and in some cases will reproduce.
α-adrenergic receptor blocker
This group of drugs is used to treat severe urinary problems to relax the smooth muscles of the bladder and urethra.
Alpha-adrenergic blockers work differently-some act selectively on the receptor, while others do not.
Many alpha-blockers are antihypertensive drugs, so they are not recommended for patients with hypotension. They have few side effects, they interfere with the reflux of urine and prevent reinfection of the prostate.
Analgesics and antispasmodics
People with obvious pain syndrome, especially inflammatory purulent disease of prostatitis, cannot do it without pain relief medicine. The pain of prostatitis is so intense that the patient cannot even touch the affected area. Most analgesics will not affect the painful area, but will reduce the sensitivity of the cerebral cortex center. Therefore, it is not worth using them on a regular basis, and they cannot provide real help in solving the problem.
Antispasmodics have another effect. These drugs relax the smooth muscles of the organs and relieve spasms.
Anti-inflammatory drugs
These drugs are designed to eliminate inflammation, reduce swelling of the affected area, have antipyretic and analgesic effects, and promote urination, but the most common is to remove inflammation through suppositories and microcells.
Preparations based on herbal ingredients
It is recommended to use natural preparations for the chronic form of the disease. They require a long-term administration process, but they can improve the function of the prostate, inhibit the activity of pathogenic microflora, and strengthen the immune system, which plagues infections for a long time.
Injection
For prostatitis, several antibiotics are recommended for intramuscular injection.
The most effective treatment for prostate inflammation produced in intramuscular injection solution is a special preparation with complex effects: relieve swelling, improve fluid circulation in the affected area, relieve inflammation, enhance smooth muscle tone, and strengthen the immune system.
Rectal candle
Rectal suppositories are considered to be the most effective way to reduce pain and inflammation. Their effectiveness is due to the fact that they bypass the blood, liver and gastrointestinal tract and penetrate directly into the affected area. The doctor recommends using in the treatment of prostatitis:
- Fish wax candle;
- Candle with medicine;
- Candles with propolis.
It is injected directly into the rectum near the inflamed area, as a quick suppository. This processing has the following effects:
- Quickly relieve pain syndrome;
- Relieve swelling and inflammation;
- Improve blood circulation in the affected area;
- Recovery of prostate function;
- The pathogenic flora is destroyed;
- The urination process resumed.
Suppositories are recommended for all forms of prostatitis.
Microcapsules and instillation
Like rectal suppositories, microenemas and instillation methods can quickly deliver the active substance directly to the inflamed organ.
You can use medicinal preparations from herbs, natural oils, decoctions and alcohol tincture solutions.
Conclusion
Before taking any medicine for treating prostatitis, you must consult a doctor and undergo a thorough examination. Drug therapy is very effective. However, if a person does not change their habits and does not eliminate the irritating factors, even if the treatment is successful, prostatitis will quickly relapse.
