Treatment of cystitis is engaged in the doctor-urologist.
In acute form, and at relapse of chronic disease need to take a course of uroseptics, which will appoint a urologist on the basis of examination, diagnostic studies and provided a history of comorbidities.
What is uroseptic?
Urocoptidae is a group of antibacterial drugs that destroy pathogens cystitis, alleviating the symptoms of the disease. Why not all antibiotics are uroseptic?
Uroseptic must meet 2 prerequisites:
In oral administration to accumulate in the kidneys and excreted from the body with urine.
By the time of excretion of the active substance must not lose its antimicrobial properties, i.e. the drugs should not undergo metabolism inside the body.
Currently, all of uroseptic are divided into two groups – chemical and natural (vegetable) origin. They can be administered as separate preparations and in the treatment of cystitis.
The functions of uroseptic?
Uroseptic perform the following functions:
Destroy pathogens of cystitis.
Prevent the spread of infection to adjacent tissues and organs, reduce the risk of developing complications of the disease.
Are prophylaxis against recurrent cystitis.
When choosing uroseptic the doctor takes into account the individual characteristics of the patient, his medical history, the form of the disease, the type of pathogen, which caused the development of cystitis and its sensitivity to the drug. The treatment also is determined individually and range from 5 to 14 days.
Selection criteria uroseptic
The causative agent of cystitis in most cases are gram-negative bacteria residing in the large intestine – E. coli and enterococci.
Less frequently the disease is provoked Klebsiella, Proteus, Bacillus blue-green pus, Staphylococcus aureus. In advanced cases of cystitis is the causative agent may be mixed microflora, consisting of several types of infectious agents.
Selection of effective uroseptic is based upon bacterial culture of urine, where stands out the causative agent and define its sensitivity to a particular drug.
The second criterion of choice of the drug – pH of urine, which is determined in the General clinical analysis. Not all of uroseptic equally effective in an acidic environment.
Uroseptic of chemical origin
Synthetic uroseptic its derivatives are divided into 3 main groups:
Nitrofurans. These include Furazolidone, Furagin, Furadonin, Furatsilin. According to the degree of activity and the effectiveness of nitrofurans inferior to antibiotics, but they have been successfully used for the treatment of cystitis for several decades. This is because drugs are not addictive.Nitrofurans violate the physiological process of respiration in bacterial cells, causing their mass death. They are active against gram-negative and gram-positive microflora, fungi of the genus Candida and some anaerobes. Drugs in this group do not accumulate in the blood, kidneys and liver, the maximum concentration is in the urine. Most often, cystitis is discharged and Furagin Furadonin. Nitrofurans can cause allergic reactions, disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, changes in the blood formula. They are contraindicated in severe lesions of the liver and kidneys, pregnancy and breastfeeding are prescribed to children from 3 years.
Okshihinolina. The drugs which are hydroxyquinoline derivatives. The most famous of them – Nitroksolin, Chinosol, Enteroseptol, oxolinic Acid. Oxichinolina effectively act on gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms, including strains resistant to antibiotics and sulfonamides. Cystitis are appointed, mainly, Nitroksolin and Acid oksolinova. They are practically in unchanged form excreted in the urine, destroying the infection in the bladder.
Chinolone and fluoroquinolones. Hinolonami called preparations of the first generation – Nalidixic acid, Papin, Pimidel, Blacks. The second generation is called fluoroquinolones. Treat him – Norfloxacin (Nolicin), Ofloxacin, Ciprofloxacin.
As uroseptic used Nolicin that reaches higher concentrations in the urine.
In modern urology, he is a drug number 1 in the treatment of cystitis, due to a number of advantages over other drugs, including antibiotics:
it has a wide spectrum of action;
it penetrates the tissues;
has a long period of withdrawal from the body, which provides postantibioticski effect;
rapidly absorbed by the walls of the small intestine.
Unique bactericidal action of the drug relieves the painful symptoms of cystitis, starting with the first dose.
