summary

One of my aunts recently found out that she was suffering from lamb madness. I was very worried about her physical condition, so I went to the hospital to consult the relevant doctors. What kinds of drug treatment are there for lamb madness? Where can I get the answer from the doctors? Let's talk about the drug treatment methods for lamb madness.

What are the drug treatments for leprosy

First: drug therapy is the main treatment for leprosy at home and abroad. After regular anti leprosy drug treatment, about 70% of the patients can be controlled, and 50% - 60% of the patients can be cured after 2-5 years of treatment. The patients can work and live as normal people. Therefore, reasonable and regular anti leprosy drug treatment is the key.

The second is the general principle in the selection of anti leprosy drugs: the correct classification of leprosy attack and syndrome is the basis of rational drug selection. In addition, we should also consider the patient's age (children, adults, the elderly), gender, accompanying diseases and potential side effects of anti leprosy drugs, which may affect the quality of life of patients in the future. If infants and young children will not swallow tablets, the application of syrup preparation is not only conducive to children taking, but also convenient to control the dosage.

Thirdly, monotherapy should be used as far as possible until the effective or maximum tolerable dose is reached. After the failure of single drug treatment, it can be combined. Try to use drugs with different mechanism of action, little or no drug interaction. The ultimate goal of rational drug use should be the best clinical effect and the lightest economic burden of patients. In the course of anti leprosy drug treatment, routine monitoring of blood concentration of anti leprosy drugs is not recommended.

matters needing attention

You may think that leprosy is a terrible and intractable disease, but as long as the patient takes the medicine prescribed by the doctor on time according to his own condition, his condition can be controlled, and he will be cured in 2-3 years.
