Prostatitis refers to acute and chronic inflammation caused by prostate specific and non specific infections, resulting in systemic or local symptoms. The following is a brief introduction to commonly used drug treatment methods for chronic prostatitis, so that patients can have an understanding of the drug treatment of chronic prostatitis.
Botanical therapy
Plant drugs are a class of drugs widely used in clinical practice. Such drugs include traditional Chinese medicine preparations and plant extracts. The common characteristic of these drugs is that their mechanisms of action are complex and diverse, and their therapeutic effects are good. They can significantly alleviate the symptoms of patients, with fewer side effects, and are relatively popular with patients. This category of drugs has a wide variety, and only one example will be briefly introduced.
Qianlie An Suppository is a suppository made from Chinese herbs such as Phellodendron amurense, Polygonum cuspidatum, Gardenia jasminoides, and Zelan, which is administered through the rectum. With blocking α- AR, inhibit the formation of inflammatory transmitters, reduce the infiltration of inflammatory cells in tissues, and other effects. At the same time, through rectal administration, the drug can reach a higher concentration in the prostate, with good therapeutic effect.
The main side effects are diarrhea, but most are not severe and can be tolerated by patients.
Senitone is a botanical drug made from the active ingredient extracted from Swedish purebred barley pollen. The water-soluble T-60 in the active ingredient can alleviate inflammation, while the liposoluble GBX can block the synthesis of leukotrienes and prostaglandins.
Overall, it has the effects of inhibiting the synthesis of endogenous inflammatory mediators, inhibiting inflammatory reactions, and relaxing urethral smooth muscle. Side effects are relatively rare.
