Treatment for coughing up vomiting: drugs, alternatives

Effective cough treatment before vomiting depends on the correctness and timeliness of the diagnosis. With a reasonably established reason for the disease state, its severity, the presence and nature of concomitant symptoms, the physician makes up a therapy plan.

1. Dry cough - provokes irritation of cough receptors by inflammatory processes, inhalation of contaminated, cold or hot air. For treatment, antitussives are used, suppressing cough reflexes. Without the use of such medications, serious complications may develop: pneumothorax, increased blood pressure, pneumomediastinum, sleep disorders, headaches and dizziness.

Medicinal products:

• Central action - suppress cough reflexes at the level of the medulla oblongata. This category includes: Codeine, Oxeladine, Ethylmorphine, Glaucin and others.

Copious drinking removes irritation in the throat and relieves attacks of emetic cough. Also recommended are steam inhalations with medicinal substances, humidification of the air, massage and other physiotherapy procedures.

2. Wet cough is a productive form of the disorder, provoked by a mucous discharge. Sputum is formed in viral and bacterial pathogens, and also acts as a protective function of the respiratory system. Its appearance is possible with pathological effects on the tracheobronchial tree of drugs used for dry cough.

• Mucolytic agents - dilute sputum and promote its rapid excretion from the body. Ambroxol, ATSTS, Mukaltin, Haliksol, Herbion, Stoptusin and others. Such drugs are contraindicated for patients younger than two years.

Patients are advised to take such vitamins:

Physiotherapeutic treatment

An integrated approach in eliminating any diseases, including a symptom such as a vomiting cough, is the key to a successful recovery. Physiotherapeutic treatment has fortifying properties that minimize pain on cough, normalize blood circulation, prevent hypoxia and seal the walls of the bronchi. Physiotherapy is carried out both during the period of exacerbation of the disease state, and during remission. It can also be prescribed for preventive purposes to prepare the organism for potential threats.

Operative treatment

Most often, coughing up to vomiting is associated with inflammatory or infectious diseases. In this case, medicamental therapy and a complex of physiotherapy are used to eliminate it. Operative treatment is most often performed if the painful condition is caused by the foreign object entering the respiratory tract.

External objects penetrate the respiratory system through the mouth during inhalation. The whole danger is that they can block the access of air to the respiratory tract. If large particles enter the bronchi, this can cause not only an inflammatory process, but also suppuration.

Most often, with foreign bodies in the larynx, bronchi and trachea, small children come into contact with them who take small objects into their mouths and can inhale them. Similar is observed in adults, for example, when talking or laughing while eating. The resulting reflex spasm significantly worsens the disease state

For the presence of foreign matter indicates such symptoms:

• Difficult breath.
• Lack of air.
• Cough with vomiting.
• Cyanosis around the nose and mouth.
• Increased tear.
• Short-term stop of breathing.

All of the above symptoms can both arise and disappear. Very often the voice becomes hoarse, there is shortness of breath and a noisy breath. Therapeutic tactics in this case is reduced to the extraction of objects and particles trapped in the respiratory tract. When choosing a method of therapy, localization, magnitude, consistency, form and degree of dislocation of the object are taken into account. Also take into account the age and individual characteristics of the patient's body.

Operative treatment is carried out by such methods:

• Laryngoscopy - allows you to identify and remove foreign bodies in the larynx, trachea and vocal cords.
• Tracheotomy - with the help of a scalpel in the trachea, an external opening is made and a special tube is inserted that facilitates the breathing process.
• Tracheobronchoscopy - an endoscope is inserted into the oral cavity, which delivers a special instrument to the lesion and removes the foreign body.

Surgical treatment can be prescribed with advanced chronic bronchitis, when the glandular tissues of bronchi and lungs are atrophied, as well as in ENT pathologies.
