Patient's question:
Not feeling well, feeling unwell, is there any good method to treat pulmonary fibrosis?Doctor's answer:
Pulmonary fibrosis is an inflammatory condition of the lungs' terminal stage caused by the proliferation of fibrocytes and inflammatory damage within lung tissue. The main drugs for treatment include pirfenidone and nintedanib. In cases of contagion, active anti-inflammatory treatment is required, using broad-spectrum antibiotics such as penicillin, cephalosporins, and erythromycin. For patients with breathing difficulties, appropriate home oxygen therapy or mechanical ventilation should be implemented.
