Treatment for optic nerve atrophy: What medication should be taken?
Doctor's answer:
Medications commonly used include neurotrophic drugs such as vitamin B1, B12, ATP, and coenzyme A, as well as vasodilators and blood-activating herbs like niacin, hydralazine, vitamin E, pentoxifylline, and compound Danshen. In recent years, methods such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy, extracorporeal counterpulsation, and acupoint anesthesia with 654-2 have all shown certain effects. Traditional Chinese medicine tonics like Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang and acupuncture treatment have long been proven effective and can be focused on for further exploration and refinement. It should also be noted that smoking and drinking strong alcohol are strictly prohibited. Additionally, it is important to enhance physical fitness and practice health exercises.
