When inflammation of the pancreas from cholino- and antispasmodic agents, such drugs as Atropine, No-shpa, Platifillin, Papaverin, and gastrocepin are used in medium doses. Take these drugs orally or in the form of subcutaneous injections( mainly with acute pain).
Of antacids in the treatment of chronic pancreatitis, phosphalugel, almagel and other alkaline mixtures in a liquid substance are used.
During exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis an important role is played by exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, therefore enzyme preparations, antacids and H2 blockers are prescribed for treatment. Over the past ten years, these medicines have been prescribed for patients with chronic pancreatitis much more often, since the positive effect of their use has been confirmed in practice.
H2-blockers in the treatment of the pancreas are used for severe pain syndrome. These include drugs ranitidine, famotidine and others.
Treatment and recovery of the pancreas can not do without enzyme therapy. To suppress pancreatic secretion, drugs such as trypsin, lipase and amylase are needed. They contain preparations Creon 8000 and Creon 25 000. Enzyme therapy is prescribed immediately after the elimination of an acute attack with a strong pain syndrome. The criterion for the effectiveness of enzyme-containing drugs is the weakening of the dyspepsia syndrome, which is expressed by the cessation of diarrhea and stabilization of body weight.
To cure and restore the pancreas, enzyme drugs for some patients have to drink regularly for many years. The experience of treatment of patients with pancreatitis shows that the exacerbation of the disease subsides even after 3-5 weeks after the initiation of enzyme intake, and complete attenuation of acute pancreatitis occurs in 6-12 months.
Enzyme medications include: Pancreatin - a preparation with enzymes of the pancreas of cattle;Pankurmen - a combination of pancreatin and turmeric extract;pancetrate - a new drug with a high content of pancreatin.
But with some variants of the chronic form of pancreatitis, which proceed with swelling of the gland, antiferment therapy is prescribed to restore its functions. Medicines of this group - Contrikal and Gordoks are introduced to the patient intravenously with the help of a dropper. The disadvantage of these drugs is the high risk of allergic reactions( in 7-10% of cases) and the risk of anaphylactic shock. Therefore, these antiseptic agents are used in a limited way.
To relieve pain during exacerbation of the disease, patients are prescribed analgesics: Paracetamol, Baralgin, Analgin. At the peak of the exacerbation of the disease, the patient is given intramuscular injections of these drugs, and when the pain is weakened, the patient can take the pill 2-3 times a day. In rare cases, when the pain is very intense, the patient is injected with narcotic pain medications: Promedol, Tramadol, Buprenorphine.
What drugs can completely relieve a person of pancreatitis? The use of pancreatic enzymes in many cases of substitution therapy is an effective tool. But a complete correction of the pathological process, unfortunately, is not achieved often. For effective treatment of pancreatic insufficiency it is necessary to take into account many factors and an individual approach to each case of the disease.
Drugs for symptoms of pancreatitis
In the treatment of pancreatitis, enzyme preparations that have been taken for a long time are widespread. Also, the patient is prescribed the following medicines for symptoms of pancreatitis:
- cholagogue preparations;
- sedatives;
- calcium;
- hormones;
- metabolic complex;
- enveloping medications.
Epsilon-aminocaproic acid( 5% - 100-200 ml.) Injected intravenously by a drop route, a course of 10-12 infusions shows high efficiency. It can also be taken orally 1 g 4 times a day.
Traditional medicines in the treatment of pancreatitis symptoms are supplemented with fiber-rich plant enzymes: Wobenzym, Unienzyme, and Phlogenzyme, but they are not prescribed for exacerbation of the disease.
The patient is recommended to take vitamins B6, B12, C, cocarboxylase - orally, as well as anabolic steroids - intramuscularly. The course of treatment is at the doctor's discretion.
After treatment, the patient normalizes the protein spectrum of blood serum, increases body weight, improves trophic processes.
The best medicine for the pancreas
Doctors can not unequivocally name the best medicine for the pancreas. With pathologies of the body, complex therapy is carried out. The choice of drugs depends on the clinical picture. Usually, enzyme agents are prescribed as substitution therapy. They provide normal pancreas activity, however, usually do not help to completely eliminate the pathological process.
The best drugs include Enzyme Fort, which not only contributes to the stabilization of secretion, but is also used in preventive measures. The drug Omeprazole, which reduces acidity, is of great effectiveness. However, its overdose leads to disruption of the process of splitting of food particles.
New drugs for pancreatitis
With the timely appointment of new drugs for pancreatitis can significantly improve the patient's condition,as well as to prevent possible complications:
- for an acute form of the disease, the patient is usually prescribed antispasmodics: Platyphylline, Baralgin and Papaverin in ampoules, as well as herbal medicines: Nigedyza and Oraza;
- in the chronic form of pancreatitis, the patient is prescribed antisecretory drugs, antispasmodics, Pancreatin microgranules, Octreotide, and, if necessary, psychotropic drugs.
What medications are not available for pancreatitis?
The question of what medicines can not be done with pancreatitis is quite relevant. First of all, one must bear in mind that an overdose of most drugs in pancreatitis can cause complications. Therefore, the dose should be agreed with the doctor. With caution, it is necessary to take Festal, Digestal, and Enzistal preparations, which contain bile components. Such drugs are contraindicated in case of exacerbation. In case of acute inflammation of the pancreas, it is also not recommended to use Creon. In addition, you must follow a diet and refuse to take hot and fatty foods.
In conclusion, it should be noted that the timely diagnosis of pancreatitis is very important. During the course of treatment, the patient must carefully follow all the doctor's recommendations.
