Inflammatory processes in the prostate are typical of mature men after 40. The pathology is caused by various hormonal inequalities, viruses or bacteria, poor immune protection, genitourinary and sexually transmitted diseases, and prolonged lack of sex.Treatment usually does not cause problems, as the pharmaceutical market offers many modern medicines that effectively cope with prostatitis.Only a qualified urologist should decide which drug for the prostatitis should take a special patient.
Forms of medication used for prostate
The medicines prescribed for the treatment of prostatitis are available in the form of tablets, suppositories, installations, injections or microenemes.Tablet medicines are usually represented by antibiotics with a very wide spectrum, which are described in cases where the causative agent of pathology has not yet been identified.In general, antibiotics are represented by three groups of medicines:
- Fluoroquinols.
- Penicillin.
- Tetracyclines.
Often in the treatment of prostate, suppositories are used, which are used rectally (they are inserted into the anus).Such medicines effectively relieve pain and have an antibacterial effect.Injection solutions have the greatest penetration into the body's tissues.They have a systemic effect, having a stimulating effect on the immune system and the vascular system.
According to experts, maximum therapeutic effectiveness is achieved by rectal method of application, which is why it is preferred by other methods of prostatitis treatment.
Often, prostate treatment also includes institution procedures, when the drug is injected directly into the patient's urethral canal.Before administering the solution, the man must empty his bladder.No more than 5 ml of solution is administered for the procedure.Basic therapy can be supplemented by folk remedies such as microenemes, in which the prostatin treatment is presented in the form of vegetable decoction or infusions.The microenema technique is based on a complex temperature-medical effect.Such treatment should be performed before bedtime, as after a hypothermia microenema or prostate overload is unacceptable.
Pharmacological groups of drugs for prostatitis
Treatment of prostatitis is always complex, including the use of medicines from various pharmacological groups: antibiotics, painkillers, α-blocking, muscle relaxants and hormone-containing medicines, antiviral and anti-inflammatory, as well as phytotherapeutic agents, etc.For bacterial etiology prostatitis, antibiotic drugs are the basis of therapy.Tablet antibiotic treatment is usually prescribed for bacterial prostatitis of chronic and acute forms and lasts about a month.In case of prostate complications, treatment is performed through the injection of medication.If the causative agent of the infection cannot be identified, then combined antibiotic therapy is performed.
Killillers significantly facilitate the prostate flow, but they should be taken as determined, as uncontrolled use of analgesics can provoke the appearance of very undesirable side effects.The use of α-blockers is due to the relaxing effect of these medicines on the muscles and neck of the bladder, which significantly reduces the pain associated with urination.But such medicines cause side effects such as hypotension or headache.Similar medicines are prescribed for chronic prostatitis of non -bacterial etiology.
Often, a man's body with prostatitis should restore and strengthen immune protection, which is aided by medicines from the group of immunomodulators, which include interferons and other medicines.
Muscle relaxants that reduce the muscle tone located in the perineum are also used in the treatment of prostatitis.The use of such medicines is due to the fact that it is the tension of these muscles that causes a feeling of disturbance and pain.The use of medicines containing hormones in treatment is determined by the need to lower testosterone levels, which provoke the growth of the prostate gland.As a result of hormone therapy, the intensity of the inflammatory process decreases and the hormonal levels are normalized.Sometimes, as an additional treatment for prostatitis, herbal preparations are used to eliminate swelling, inflammation and pain.Products based on herbal ingredients are often used in the treatment of chronic forms of prostate inflammation.
In the case of viral etiology prostate, the use of antiviral agents is indicated.Therapy is often supplemented with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.The action of such medicines is aimed at eliminating pain, swelling and high fever that accompany inflammatory processes in the prostate.Suppositories containing non-steroidal anti-inflammatory substances are particularly effective.Medication therapy often involves the use of medicines that improve blood flow to the prostate.
There are many effective medicines for the treatment of inflammation in the prostate gland, but they cannot be prescribed independently, even when there are no contraindications at all.
