What medicine should prostatitis take? I believe that this is a question that many patients want to know, but there is actually no exact answer. It should be analyzed specifically based on the specific condition. The use of medication for prostatitis is very cautious, and the standard of medication must be to follow medical advice. Do not use medication on your own. So, judging from the condition, what medicine is good for prostatitis?
What medicine does acute prostatitis take?
The diagnosis and treatment of acute bacterial prostatitis is relatively easy, with a good prognosis. Most patients can fully heal, but a few patients become chronic. Acute bacterial prostatitis should be treated with fast and effective antibacterial drugs, such as cotrimoxazole and cephalosporin, which can quickly control inflammation. However, it is important to remember to adhere to medication for a period of time to prevent recurrent attacks or the development of chronic prostatitis.
When using antibiotics for prostatitis drugs, it is recommended to choose antibiotics that are fat soluble, easily penetrate the prostate barrier, and have a low binding rate with plasma proteins. First-line drugs such as quinolones (such as norfloxacin, levofloxacin, sparfloxacin, etc.), sulfonamides (such as cotrimoxazole), and tetracyclines (such as tetracycline, minocycline) can be selected.

What medicine does chronic prostatitis take?
For chronic bacterial prostatitis, sensitive antibiotics such as cephalosporin and minocycline can be selected based on bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests. For chronic non bacterial prostatitis, if it can be clearly identified as chlamydia and/or mycoplasma infection, drugs such as erythromycin, minocycline, and bazaar can be selected. If there is no chlamydia, mycoplasma, or other clear pathogen infection, antibiotics should not be used due to poor efficacy after application.
In addition, in the treatment of chronic prostatitis, medication should be maintained for a certain period of time, ranging from about 1-4 months to at least 6 months. When symptoms have eased, medication should also be maintained, as withdrawal is prone to relapse. Once relapse occurs, it is recommended that one course of antibiotics be used again.
Do not abuse antibiotics in the treatment of prostatitis
The treatment of prostatitis cannot rely solely on drugs. Treating prostatitis with drugs alone may lead to recurrent conditions and more difficult to heal. In addition, some prostate patients prefer to use antibiotics, but antibiotics are not a "universal" drug for treating bacterial prostatitis. Prostatitis patients should not abuse, otherwise they will develop drug resistance and have an impact on subsequent treatment.
