Treatment of obstructive bronchitis in adults

Treatment of obstructive bronchitis in adults takes place with constant interruptions - all life.

Obstruction, which has passed into the stage of a chronic process, leads to the appearance of irreversible changes, prone to progression. Complete recovery of chronic obstructive bronchitis is almost impossible. Therefore, the main task in this situation is the removal of the main symptoms and the relief of the patient's condition.

All this suggests that the appeal to specialists should be as prompt as possible, immediately after the appearance of the slightest suspicion of an inflammatory process in the bronchi.

Factors of recovery

The treatment of any disease requires a responsible approach to the process, both from the medical staff and the patient himself. Bronchoconstruction is very difficult to treat. Success and speed of recovery depend on: 

• degree of severity of the disease; 
• the vastness of the pathological process;
• involvement in obstruction of other organs, except bronchi;
• the age of the patient;
• the presence of aggravating factors (smoking).

Smokers who have a long record of their bad habits, almost all, suffer from chronic bronchitis with more or less severe obstruction. Hence the obvious conclusion - the sooner you quit smoking, the faster relief will come and in the bronchi, finally, enlightenment will begin.

Stop the progressing current

The main thing is the treatment of obstructive bronchitis in adults. It is necessary as soon as possible to exert influence on the pathological process, in order to limit its spread to other organs. For this, first of all, it is necessary to give up smoking, if such a habit is available.

Nicotine has not only a detrimental effect on the body, in particular, on damaged bronchi, but also inhibits, and often reduces, all the curative effects of the drugs used.

The main treatment of obstructive adult bronchitis

In acute obstructive bronchitis should combine different methods of treatment aimed at achieving therapeutic treatment based on medicines: 

• expanding the bronchi, the so-called adrenoreceptors, for example, salbutamol; 
• stimulating the work of bronchi - tiotropium bromide; 
• have a strong secretory effect on the production and excretion of sputum - expectorants and mucolytics; 
• preventing the development of complications - taking mucolytics in combination with antibiotics.

Antibiotics for the treatment of obstructive bronchitis

Are indicated in severe forms. It is most appropriate to use antibiotics, which have proven themselves in the fight against complex inflammatory processes, including with obstructive phenomena - amoxicillin, erythromycin. These medicines belong to different groups of antibiotics and are only representatives of each group.

Correct and Wrong antibiotics

What kind of drug from these groups to give preference, it will be clear after the results of blood tests and sputum on the sensitivity to antibiotics. Therefore, one should not show excessive zeal and prescribe medication independently.

Premature reception of incorrect, ineffective antibiotics in this case, can lead to "lubrication" of the picture of the disease, which in turn significantly increases the chance of complications.
