Patient's question:
Recently, I've been frequently urinating with a feeling of incomplete emptying and pain during urination. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said it was prostatitis. What kind of medicine should I take for prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Currently, many advocate the use of quinolone drugs such as ofloxacin or levofloxacin. If ineffective, continue for 8 weeks. In case of recurrence and if the bacterial species has not changed, preventive dosing is recommended to increase acute recurrence. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are generally used orally or as suppositories. Traditional Chinese medicine using anti-inflammatory, heat-clearing, detoxifying, and softening herbs has also shown certain effects. Allopurinol can reduce uric acid levels in the blood and prostatic fluid, theoretically acting as a free radical scavenger. It can be taken. Levofloxacin can effectively stabilize symptoms of prostatitis and urinary issues.
