What medicine to take for bladder inflammation

Cystitis is a relatively common inflammation of the urinary system. After suffering from cystitis, patients often experience bladder pain, frequent urination, urgency and other symptoms. If not treated in time, it may become chronic and even cause great harm to other reproductive and urinary system organs and tissues. It also has a great impact on kidney health. At this time, medication treatment should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.

Can chronic cystitis be completely cured?

1. General treatment.

Patients with acute cystitis need to get adequate rest, drink plenty of water to increase urine output, pay attention to nutrition, avoid eating irritating foods, and hot water sitz baths can relieve symptoms. Patients with significant bladder irritation symptoms are given antispasmodics to relieve symptoms.

2. Anti-infection drug treatment.

Select effective antibacterial drugs based on the results of urine bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test. Before the bacterial culture results are obtained, rapid treatment is required in acute infections. Therefore, a urine smear can be taken for Gram staining. A preliminary treatment plan can be formulated based on whether it is bacilli or cocci, and treatment can be carried out first. Alternatively, broad-spectrum antibiotics or antibiotics with high urine excretion concentrations and few side effects, such as sulfonamides and furans, can be used, and the treatment plan can be adjusted after the bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test results are available. The dosage of therapeutic medication should be sufficient and the duration should be long. Generally, it should be used for 1 to 2 weeks after the symptoms subside and urine routine returns to normal. During the treatment process, urine bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests should be performed regularly, and antibacterial drugs that are sensitive to bacteria should be adjusted at any time in order to achieve complete cure as soon as possible and prevent recurrence.

3. Treatment of the cause.

For chronic cystitis with obvious causes, the causes must be eliminated, otherwise, the cystitis will be difficult to control. Such as relieving urinary tract obstruction, removing foreign objects and stones in the bladder, etc.; women with recurrent cystitis should undergo gynecological examinations to rule out and treat female reproductive tract inflammation; upper urinary tract sources and male reproductive organ inflammation such as prostatitis should all be actively treated at the same time. Chronic cystitis can also be treated with intravesical drug instillation and bladder flushing, such as 0.5-1% neomycin solution, 1/5000-1/10000 silver nitrate solution, 5%-10% protein silver solution, and 0.5% metronidazole solution.
