Tablets from cystitis - wrong choice fraught with complications

Cystitis is a common disease. Men suffer from them less often than women, this is due to differences in anatomy. According to Russian statistics, this disease at least once visited up to 40% of the population. The reasons that cause it, there are many, and pills for cystitis are assigned different. We will not consider special cases associated with other serious diseases or their treatment (radiation therapy of pelvic organs, for example, in 90% of cases causes cystitis). Let us dwell on the most common form - bacterial cystitis.

It is usually caused by ingestion in the urinary tractE. coli, less often - staphylococci, other infections are very rare. Accordingly, tablets are prescribed for cystitis, to which these bacteria are sensitive.

The main mistake in self-treatment -usually the intake of weak or obsolete drugs, for example 5-NOC, nitroxoline. Bacteria that cause cystitis, they are already insensitive. The use of such drugs often leads to the transition of the disease from acute to chronic.

In acute form also will not be effectivelocal treatment, for example, by instillations of the bladder - this is an additional trauma to the walls, and can lead to complications. It is also ineffective treatment of herbs, dues and other folk remedies, this will only complicate further treatment and will lengthen its terms.

I want to warn against too "difficult"methods of treatment with expensive procedures (unverified), drugs and supplements. In practice, these are the same tablets from cystitis (antibiotics), only significantly more expensive.

It is extremely rare for treatmenthospitalization, treatment is carried out at home. The mucosal wall of the bladder recovers fairly quickly, and the symptoms disappear completely. But it often happens when the doctor prescribes drugs for the treatment of cystitis. Of course, if you turned to him in time. If the causes causing cystitis are incorrectly determined, the drug may be ineffective, and the disease will change into a chronic form.

Cystitis is usually accompanied by severe pain andunpleasant sensations in the lower abdomen. To ease the condition (not for treatment) use antispasmodics, for example, papaverine or atropine. With a hot water bottle it is better not to take risks, because the heat, although it facilitates urination, promotes the reproduction of bacteria, which, in fact, must be disposed of. Heat also increases bleeding, so if there is a suspicion of blood in the urine, the warmer is contraindicated categorically.

All the actual cure for cystitis areantibiotics, which are taken either singly, or by a course of 3 to 7 days. Once you can take monural (3 grams), courses 3 days and 7 days take fluoroquinolones. The recommended course is indicated in the instructions for the specific preparation. For example, three-day courses take levofloxacin (1 time per day), norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin (2 times a day). The same medicine, depending on the dosage can be used in different courses.

If I have overtaken cystitis, I'll have some timeadhere to a diet: exclude alcohol and coffee, spicy, sour, fatty and fried, as well as carbonated drinks. It is better to prefer a dairy diet and vegetable food. Diet is necessary to minimize irritation of the walls of the bladder, and quickly passed unpleasant symptoms. Until the disappearance of painful manifestations should adhere to bed rest, it helps to relax the walls and facilitate urination.

Treatment of chronic cystitis is practicallyis identical to the treatment of acute, but is supplemented by attention to the underlying disease that caused cystitis. After the main treatment, it may be useful for a month or two to drink light vegetable preparations, the same kanefron (but not instead of treatment).
