How to anesthetize acute cystitis: the names of the tablets

Almost every patient who has ever encountered such a phenomenon had to take an anesthetic for cystitis. This is not surprising, since cystitis is accompanied by severe pain and spasms. In order to relieve an attack of cystitis, you have to take painkillers. The question of what drugs can be taken, in what cases, in what dosage remains very relevant. Let's take a look at everything in detail.

Can I take painkillers for cystitis?

The main question that patients ask is: “Is it possible to take painkillers for cystitis?”. The answer is obvious: it is possible, and often even necessary. Pain cannot be tolerated, it must be eliminated. At the same time, you need to understand that the painkiller will not solve the problem, but only eliminate the pain. Inflammation and infectious process will not disappear anywhere. In order to cure the disease, complex treatment is necessary, which includes, first of all, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs, other etiopathogenetic agents. Painkillers act as a means of symptomatic therapy, and are aimed solely at stopping the pain syndrome.

It is worth noting that painkillers work in different ways, so before you start using painkillers, it is also better to consult a doctor. Some experts do not recommend taking painkillers for a long time, since this significantly reduces the reactivity and sensitivity of the body, causes inhibition in the central nervous system. Usually, painkillers are used as a means aimed at providing first aid for a severe attack of cystitis, with an exacerbation, with a pronounced pain syndrome. Then they switch to a complex treatment that relieves inflammation and eliminates the inflammatory process. As the inflammation subsides, so does the intensity of the pain, and the need for pain medication decreases on its own. In any case, the first aid kit of a person suffering from acute or chronic cystitis should contain a minimum set of painkillers and analgesics. It is desirable that these are proven remedies that accurately help relieve pain in relatively short periods of time. This is due to the fact that the individual sensitivity and tolerance of each person is different. What works for one person may be completely ineffective for another. The following main drugs are used as the main painkillers for cystitis: cystone, furamag, monural, 5-NOC, no-shpa, spazmolgon, analgin, ketopherol, ketanol, baralgin, baralgetas, diclofenac, urolesan. [1]

Do painkillers help with cystitis?

We often hear the question: “Do painkillers help with cystitis?”. First you need to clearly understand what is meant by saying that the drug helps? If you mean whether painkillers will help relieve the patient's condition, relieve pain for a while, eliminate the attack, then yes, painkillers help with cystitis. So, they act specifically against pain, eliminating pain. But they do not fight the cause of the pain. Painkillers can relieve pain by acting on the nervous system, the regulatory system of the body by reducing the sensitivity and conductivity of nerve fibers. As a result, a person does not feel pain, but the inflammatory and infectious process continues to develop.

If, when asking if painkillers help with cystitis, the patient means whether it is possible to cure cystitis with the help of painkillers, relieve inflammation, prevent an infectious process, and reduce the risk of complications, the answer is obvious. In this regard, painkillers are not effective. Their only task is to provide the patient with a comfortable state in which he does not feel pain. Otherwise, the pathological process continues to develop. In the genitourinary system, inflammation continues, the infectious process is rapidly developing. The disease may even progress. It is not advisable to take painkillers and expect recovery and self-healing of the disease. The painkiller has only a short-term effect, as it "freezes" the sensitivity and susceptibility of a person. It does not affect other processes in the body. Therefore, painkillers can only be taken as a first aid, or for a short-term effect. Otherwise, complex treatment is required, which will fight the cause of pain - inflammation and infection. [2]

Indications Pain reliever for cystitis

The main indications for the use of painkillers are intense pain, severe pain syndrome, prolonged pain of any localization and genesis. Painkillers are taken when you need to eliminate pain, alleviate the condition. Cystitis is one of the diseases in which it is advisable to use painkillers, since this is a rather painful condition. The drugs can be taken at various stages of the development of an inflammatory infectious process: for first aid in case of a severe attack of cystitis, to eliminate pain in acute or chronic cystitis, with a relapse of the disease. Painkillers can be included in the main therapy for pain relief, can be combined with other drugs (after checking the compatibility of the drugs). Painkillers are used at any stage of treatment, if necessary, painful diagnostic and invasive studies, in preparation for surgery, in the postoperative period. [3]

Painkillers for acute cystitis

In acute cystitis, painkillers are needed, since the acute form of the disease is almost always accompanied by severe pain. During this period, various painkillers are used. It is best to consult your doctor before you start taking medications. If this is not possible, funds from the group of analgesics will come to the rescue. It is better to choose derivatives of salicylic acid, pyrazolone and aniline, as they quickly relieve pain. In addition, they have anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effects, which not only lower the pain threshold, but also provide minimal treatment and prevent the risk of serious complications in the early stages.

In acute cystitis, the following painkillers are recommended: sodium salicylate, acetyl salicylic acid, askofen, asphene, novocephalgin, citramon, salicylamide, methyl salicylate (or salicylic acid), antipyrine, ancofen, pyramidon, amidopyrine, pyrafen, pyraminal, pyramein, nomigrofen, pircofen, apikodin, analgin, adofen, analfen, diafein, dikafen, cofalgin, fenalgin, andipal, butadione, phenacetin, paracetamol. All these funds are taken in strict accordance with the instructions.

Painkiller for hemorrhagic cystitis

With hemorrhagic cystitis, you can take almost all painkillers, with the exception of those that belong to the group of salicylic acid derivatives. This is due to the fact that salicylic acid and its derivatives have anticoagulant properties, that is, they contribute to blood thinning. Hemorrhagic cystitis is already accompanied by bleeding, bruising, a tendency to blood in the urine, fragility and increased permeability of blood vessels, and a violation of the microvasculature. Salicylic acid only exacerbates the situation, making the blood more fluid and mobile, and the vessels more brittle and permeable. With hemorrhagic cystitis, the following anesthetic is contraindicated: sodium salicylate, acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), askofen, asphene, citramon, novocephalgin, salicylamide, methyl salicylate.

In hemorrhagic forms of cystitis, it is recommended to take funds aimed not only at relieving pain, but also at preventing bleeding, increasing vascular permeability. The most effective will be such painkillers as: diclofenac, aminocaproic acid, pyramidon, analgin, cofalgin, dikafen, phenacetin. You can also try drugs such as 5-NOC, monupral, furagin, cystone, urolesan.

Painkiller for pyelonephritis and cystitis

Pyelonephritis is an inflammatory process in the kidneys, cystitis - in the urinary tract. Accordingly, the inflammatory-infectious process covers almost the entire urinary system. This dictates certain requirements for the choice of painkillers. So. Painkillers for pyelonephritis and cystitis should have a gentle effect on the kidneys, should not cause an increased load on them. You should avoid taking drugs that increase diuresis (diuretic effect). In this case, the following drugs will be most effective: monural, furagin, 5-NOC, urosulfan, furagin, analgin, diclofenac, diphenhydramine + suprastin. With severe pain syndrome, which is not stopped by other drugs, an injection of novocaine is made. However, in this case, it is better to entrust such injections to a specialist. It is better if the novocaine injection is performed by an ambulance doctor. Arriving at the call, since it has a number of contraindications and precautions, it requires a special execution technique.

Painkillers for cystitis in women and men

Despite the presence of significant anatomical differences in the urinary system in women and men, this does not affect the choice of anesthetic. For cystitis in women and men, painkillers from the same list are used. This is due to the fact that the mechanism of their action is aimed at blocking the reflex arc (the path of the nerve impulse), and is not directly related to the genitourinary system. Consider the main painkillers used for cystitis in men and women, as well as how to use them.

Sodium salicylate is prescribed orally at 0.5-1 gram per dose. In acute cystitis and severe pain syndrome, it is prescribed in large doses, 5-8 grams per day, 1-2 grams per dose, during the first day. Such appointments can only be made by a doctor, since it is necessary to exclude possible contraindications and risk factors, and analyze the patient's history. Sometimes they resort to intravenous administration of this drug - a 10-15% solution of 3-10 ml per day, daily. The course of treatment is 10-15 days. At the same time, to prevent unwanted reactions and side effects, it is recommended to administer 5-10 ml of a 40% solution of hexamethylenetetramine. Intravenous injections are carried out slowly.

Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is prescribed at 0.25 - 1 gram per day, depending on the severity of the pain syndrome. In acute cystitis on the first day, 4-5 grams of the drug per day is prescribed. Acetylsalicylic acid, along with other active ingredients, is part of drugs such as askofen, asfen, novotsefalgin.

Askofen is prescribed 1-3 tablets a day, asfen - 2-4 tablets, novocephalgin - 1-3 tablets, depending on the severity of the condition.

Citramon is prescribed in the form of tablets or powder, in accordance with the instructions.

Release form

The main forms of release of painkillers used for cystitis are tablets, solutions for intravenous, intramuscular injections, powders for the preparation of solutions and suspensions. In some cases, homeopathic remedies, medicinal herbs are used. They are produced in prepared form in special paper or cardboard packaging, bags. It is necessary to store all forms of painkillers in strict accordance with the instructions.

Effective pain reliever for cystitis

There are a lot of painkillers that can eliminate the pain of cystitis. It is impossible to unequivocally name one effective pain reliever for cystitis due to the fact that each person's body is individual. What helps one person may be completely useless for another person, and vice versa. It all depends on individual reactivity, the body's tolerance to drugs, how often the patient takes painkillers, and which ones. Also, much depends on the form, severity of the disease, the characteristics of the etiology and pathogenesis, the duration of therapy.

If we analyze the statistical data, we can identify the 5 most effective drugs used with high frequency in cystitis in order to relieve pain. Most often, 5-NOC is prescribed, since it not only relieves pain, but also eliminates the inflammatory process in the genitourinary system. In second place in terms of frequency of use is analgin. This is a fairly common pain reliever, which is widely used for various pain syndromes, regardless of the etiology, pathogenesis, localization of pain. In third place in terms of frequency of use is urolesan. This is a well-known drug aimed at treating diseases of the urinary system, relieves pain, inflammation, fever, and prevents the development of the inflammatory process.

In fourth place - diphenhydramine in combination with analgin or suprastin. Most often used with a strong attack, when the pain is not stopped by other drugs. It is given as an injection. In fifth place is ketopherol, or ketanol (two different names for the same remedy). This is a strong pain reliever that is used by prescription. It is used for severe attacks, severe conditions, chronic forms of cystitis, exacerbations or relapses. Indicated when other means have failed. It should be borne in mind that this remedy has a number of contraindications and side effects.

If you do not know how to anesthetize with cystitis, you should try standard painkillers aimed at relieving pain, inflammation, fever. Many painkillers can be taken for cystitis. Let's take a look at the basics.

Salicylamide. Assign inside 0.25-0.5 g 2-3 times a day. The main action is anesthesia. Also, the drug relieves fever and inflammation. With severe attacks of cystitis, 0.5 grams are prescribed 3-4 times a day, in the future, as necessary, the dosage can be increased to 1 g 3-4 times a day, or reduced to 0.25 g 2-3 times. Depending on the tolerability of the drug, you can vary the frequency of use - up to 8-10 times a day, without exceeding the maximum recommended daily dosage. Side effects - nausea, vomiting, headache, dyspeptic disorders.

Antipyrine. Assign inside of 0.25-0.5 grams per day. It relieves pain, has an anti-inflammatory and moderate hemostatic effect, and therefore it is often prescribed for hemorrhagic cystitis, the appearance of blood in the urine. It should be borne in mind that as a side effect it can cause an allergic reaction, mainly in the form of a red rash.

Ankofen. Assign 1 tablet 2-3 times a day. If necessary, you can increase the frequency of reception up to 5 times a day.

Amidopyrine. It has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic effect. Assign 0.25-0.3 grams per day. In acute attacks, the daily dosage can be increased to 2-3 grams per day. With prolonged use, it is necessary to periodically conduct a blood test, since the drug can cause oppression of hematopoietic function. Allergic reactions in the form of a rash may also occur.

Verodon is a strong analgesic, anti-inflammatory, sedative. Has a hypnotic effect. It is prescribed for severe, severely current cystitis with constant severe pain. Recommended 1 tablet 2-3 times a day.

Pyrafen, pyraminal, pyramein, novografen, pircofen, apikodin - appoint 1 tablet 2-3 times a day.

Painkillers for cystitis

With cystitis, various painkillers are taken. Consider the main drugs, how they are used.

Analgin. It has a pronounced analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effect. By the nature of the action, it is as close as possible to amidopyrine. The combined appointment of analgin and amidopyrine allows you to get a quick and lasting effect. When using analgin alone, it is prescribed orally at 0.25-0.5 g 2-3 times a day. The maximum daily dose is 3 grams. With severe pain, 1 ml of a 50% solution of analgin is injected intramuscularly 2-3 times a day.

Often, to enhance the effect, analgin is prescribed together with phenobarbital, caffeine, and other means. Also, to relieve pain in cystitis, adofen, analfen, diafein, dikafen, cofalgin, fenalgin, andipal are prescribed 1 tablet 2-3 times a day.

Butadiol is prescribed at 0.1-0.15 g (single dose). Take 4-6 times a day. Assign during meals, or after meals. With severe attacks of pain, the daily dose is 0.45-0.6 grams, after a noticeable improvement, the daily dose can be reduced to 0.3-0.4 g per day. The duration of treatment is 2-5 weeks, regardless of the severity of the pain syndrome. Amidopyrine tablets with butadione are often prescribed (per tablet orally up to 4-5 times a day). They are also produced under the name Reopin.

Phenacetin is prescribed 0.2-0.5 grams 2-3 times a day. Well tolerated by the body. Possible side effects in the form of allergic reactions. In high doses and with prolonged treatment, it can cause a decrease in hemoglobin.

Paracetamol is prescribed at 0.2-0.5 grams 2-3 times a day. The maximum daily dose is 0.8 - 1.2 grams. It is used in the form of tablets or powder.

There are quite a few painkillers that can be used to relieve the pain of cystitis. We list the names of the main drugs:

• paracetamol (synonyms - alvedon, angotropil, apamid, dolamine, febridol, panadol, tylenol);
• phenacetin (synonyms - acetofenitidine, fenitidine, phenedin, fenin);
• amidopyrine (synonyms - pyramidon, alamidon, amidazofen, amidofebrin, amidophene, amidozone, aminopyrazoline, anafebrin, dipyrine, dipyrine, novamidon, pyrazon);
• analgin (synonyms - algocalmin, algopyrin, analgetin, cibalgin, dipyrone, metamizole, metapirin, minalgin, neomelubrin, novaldin, novalgin, pantalgan, pyralgin, pyretin, pyridone, pyrizan, salpirin, sulfonovine);
• butadiol (synonyms - arthrizine, butalidon, butapyrazole, butartril, butazolidine, butylpyrine, phenopyrine, pyrazolidine);
• antipyrine (synonyms - analgesin, anodynin, azofenum, metozin, parodin, phenazone, phenylene, pyrazine, pyrazoline, pyrodin, sedatin);
• salicylamide (algamon, salamide, saliamid);
• acetysalicylic acid (synonyms - aspirin, acezal, acetol, acetophen, acetosal, acylpyrin, genaspirin, istopirin, polopiin, ruspirin, salacetin, saletin).

Pharmacodynamics

Painkillers have a pronounced analgesic effect. In addition, they provide thermoregulation of the body. Most of them have an antipyretic effect, which is important in febrile diseases. This effect is associated primarily with the impact on the corresponding centers of the brain. They have a moderate analgesic effect. They do not cause euphoria, do not have a hypnotic effect, do not depress the cough and respiratory centers. An important feature of most painkillers prescribed for cystitis is their anti-inflammatory effect. They have a stimulating effect on the pituitary gland, adrenal cortex, some cause an acceleration of metabolism.

Analyzing pharmacodynamics, it is important to note that the action of some painkillers, for example, salicylates, is similar to the action of pituitary adrenocorticotropic hormone. Of the side effects, many painkillers cause allergic reactions, or dyspeptic disorders. It should be borne in mind that some drugs, for example, salicylates, cause a decrease in the content of prothrombin in the blood, which allows them to be used as light anticoagulants. It should be borne in mind that such drugs are contraindicated with reduced blood clotting, with a tendency to bleeding, with hemorrhagic cystitis. Pyrazolone derivatives, on the contrary, have a moderate hemostatic effect. Therefore, they are contraindicated in patients with a tendency to thrombosis, with a history of increased clotting, atherosclerosis, varicose veins. Many pyrazolone derivatives cause allergic reactions, individual intolerance.

Pharmacokinetics

When analyzing pharmacokinetics, it is worth noting that most of the drugs prescribed to eliminate pain in cystitis are classified as derivatives of salicylic acid, pyrazolone or aniline. Properties depend on the group to which these substances belong. Salicylic acid derivatives are mostly white crystalline powder, or small flakes. The preparations are odorless, have a sweetish-salty taste. Easily soluble in water, in alcohol solution. Aqueous solutions. As a rule, they have an acidic reaction. Substances are stable, in the body they are easily hydrolyzed with the release of salicylic acid. The excess is excreted in the urine unchanged. It is recommended to take after meals, drink plenty of water.

Pyrazolone derivatives are colorless crystals or white crystal powder. They have no smell. Soluble in water, chloroform, alcohol, difficult to dissolve in ether. Store tightly closed, out of direct sunlight.

Aniline derivatives are white fine crystalline powder, odorless. Has a slightly bitter taste. Poorly soluble in water. It is difficult to dissolve even in boiling water, but it dissolves well in alcohol. Solutions are acidic. Store in well-sealed jars.

Dosing and administration

It is definitely impossible to say what method of application and dose of painkillers. This is due, first of all, to the fact that under the concept of "painkillers", they combine a huge number of extremely heterogeneous drugs. These can be heavy narcotic painkillers, and mild analgesics with anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects. Each of these drugs is used in a different way.

In general, painkillers are prescribed for cystitis in the form of tablets or powders for oral administration, or in the form of intramuscular, intravenous injections. Doses depend on the age of the patient, on his body weight, on the severity of the pathological process, on concomitant therapy and the presence of concomitant diseases. The dose is also determined by whether the patient receives complex therapy for the underlying disease, and in what form. In addition, each substance has its own recommended dosages and methods of application. As a rule, the instructions for the drug indicate the recommended single dose, frequency of administration and daily dose. In no case should the daily dose be exceeded, as this can cause an overdose.

Painkillers for cystitis

With severe pain syndrome with cystitis, painkillers can be prescribed. Assign drugs such as azathioprine at a dose of 100-150 mg / day, calcium chloride - 5-10 ml of a 10% solution slowly, intravenously. Calcium gluconate is prescribed intravenously or intramuscularly, 5-10 ml of a 10% solution, diphenhydramine, 1 ml of a 1% solution intramuscularly, suprastin, 1-2 ml of a 2% solution intramuscularly, prodigiosan 0.25-1.0 mg intramuscularly 2-3 times per week for 2-3 weeks.

How to anesthetize cystitis at home?

Often, patients with a history of cystitis ask the question: “How to anesthetize cystitis at home?”. In this case, it should be immediately noted that cystitis can be anesthetized only in the process of providing first aid to the patient during an acute attack. In the future, it is imperative to call an ambulance, as well as carry out further treatment on an outpatient or inpatient basis, following the prescription and recommendations of the doctor. Self-medication should not be done, as it can be dangerous to health, can cause serious complications. An improperly selected remedy can sporulate the spread of an infectious and inflammatory process and cause serious kidney disease.

Therefore, we proceed from the fact that it is possible to anesthetize cystitis when providing first aid, before the arrival of an ambulance. Or there are cases when painkillers are not included in the complex therapy. The doctor includes anti-inflammatory and anti-infective agents in therapy. But he doesn't prescribe painkillers. In order not to endure pain, painkillers can be added to therapy. But in any case, before doing this, you need to consult a doctor. Perhaps the doctor will change the treatment regimen, or advise the most optimal drugs. Maybe. Some drugs do not work together.

As the main painkillers, drugs such as analgin, aspirin, diphenhydramine, diclofenac, suprastin, citramon, nimesil, nimegesic, paracetamol, 5-NOC, urolesan, urosept, ketoferol, ketonal, and others are used.

If you are in doubt and not sure what is the best way to anesthetize cystitis at home, herbal medicine, homeopathic remedies will always come to the rescue. Herbal treatment has worked well. Consider the main herbs that can be taken for cystitis to relieve pain.

Plantain large is used mainly in the form of decoctions and syrups: 2-3 tablespoons 3-4 times a day. You can use pure plantain juice.

Peppermint is used in the form of infusions, decoctions, collection Zdrenko. Recommended for women, contraindicated for men.

Chamomile flowers are used internally in the form of decoctions, infusions. I use it in essential oils. Chamomile is also used as part of the fees, it can be added to tea.

Herbs such as sage, lavender, corn stigmas, galega, cuff, stevia, red, goat's rue, mamarantha, plantain, sage, mint, chamomile, wormwood, wood lice, rezuha, yarrow, immortelle, arfazetin, hawthorn, calamus, marshmallow, echinacea purpurea, sand immortelle, common thyme, common fennel, hop cones, horsetail, Scots pine (needles), wild rose, St. John's wort, calendula.

Application for children

Often there is a need for the use of painkillers for children. With cystitis, children develop a strong pain syndrome, which must be stopped. It is better to choose drugs that, along with an analgesic effect, also have antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects. This will not only relieve pain, but also reduce the inflammatory process, due to which recovery occurs much faster. For children, the same painkillers are used as for adults. Before use, you must carefully read the instructions. Children are recommended to use derivatives of salicylic acid, pyrazolone or aniline. Other pain relievers may have numerous contraindications. You should consult with your doctor before giving your child pain medication. Be sure to take into account the age of the patient. Usually, painkillers are prescribed for children older than 2-3 years. It is not recommended to choose the drug on your own. To choose a drug, to draw up a scheme for its use for children, only a pediatrician washes, since many factors must be taken into account. No remedy can be prescribed without a preliminary examination. Laboratory tests (blood, urine) are often required. Doses are usually 2-3 times lower than the doses of the corresponding drugs for adults.

Use Pain reliever for cystitis during pregnancy

Currently, there are many discussions about whether it is possible to use painkillers for cystitis in pregnant women. Some doctors argue that no drugs should be taken during pregnancy, as they can harm the fetus. Other doctors are inclined to believe that painkillers can be taken for severe pain. They are prescribed for severe pain, as well as if the risk from lack of treatment outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.

Recent studies convincingly prove the fact that pain negatively affects the development of the fetus. Under no circumstances should pain be tolerated. Firstly, pain causes a number of negative changes in the nervous, endocrine system, undermines the immune system, which negatively affects the condition of the fetus. Secondly, pain has a depressing effect on the nervous system, distorts the emotional background. As you know, the mental health of the fetus largely depends on the emotional state of the mother at the time of pregnancy. The somatic state of the body, physical health, and hormonal levels depend on mental health. So it's much safer to take a painkiller and not endure the pain. This will ensure the harmonious development of both mother and fetus. In addition, most painkillers do not cross the placental barrier, so they do not adversely affect the fetus.

In any case, it is not recommended to choose the drug on your own. You should consult with your doctor, choose the best remedy, paint a scheme for its use. Self-medication can be dangerous.

Contraindications

In general, painkillers do not have contraindications for use, since they are intended to relieve pain. But it is always necessary to take into account the characteristics of the prescribed drug, as well as the individual reactions of the patient, his history, comorbidities. So, it must be borne in mind that salicylic acid derivatives significantly thin the blood, and can act as light anticoagulants. Accordingly, they are contraindicated for use in patients suffering from hemophilia, reduced blood clotting. These drugs should not be prescribed to people with a tendency to bleeding, in the postoperative period. They are contraindicated in preparation for operations, as well as in hemorrhagic cystitis, with the appearance of blood in the urine.

Painkillers related to pyrazolone derivatives, on the contrary, have the ability to make blood thicker and increase its coagulability. Accordingly, such drugs are contraindicated for use in patients with a tendency to form blood clots, blockage of the veins. They are contraindicated in varicose veins, atherosclerosis, thrombophlebitis, increased blood clotting. They are also contraindicated in those who take drugs to increase blood clotting, or those who take anticoagulants.

Aniline derivatives can cause dyspeptic disorders and allergic reactions, individual intolerance. With caution, these drugs should be taken by patients with a history of allergic reactions (delayed, immediate type), bronchial asthma, asthmatic bronchitis, and other similar diseases. It is not recommended to prescribe these drugs to patients with indigestion, with diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.

Side effects Pain reliever for cystitis

With the use of many painkillers, some side effects may occur. So, they can cause dyspeptic disorders, in particular, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. Some patients experience tinnitus, headache, nasal and ear congestion. There may be fever, tidal sweat, angioedema, hallucinations (in rare, exceptional cases). In patients suffering from bronchial asthma, an increase in asthma attacks, difficulty breathing is possible. Patients with a tendency to allergic reactions may experience a rash, other types of allergic reactions. To reduce side effects, it is recommended to take them after meals, or drink milk.

Overdose

In case of an overdose of painkillers, typical signs of intoxication develop: headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, pain in the stomach, intestines. In mild and moderate cases, dizziness, headache, weakness, increased sweating, chills, and fever are observed. In severe cases, loss of consciousness, hallucinations, a sharp drop in blood pressure, pulse, and slowing of breathing are possible. Up to a coma, and even death. When the first signs of an overdose appear, you need to stop taking medications, induce vomiting, drink a sorbent and call an ambulance. In severe cases, hospitalization is needed for gastric lavage, sometimes blood, anti-toxic therapy.

Interactions with other drugs

Most pain relievers work well with and interact with other medications. But before use, you should always inform your doctor and read the instructions on the compatibility of drugs. For example, derivatives of salicylic acid and pyrazolone are not combined with drugs aimed at increasing blood clotting, as well as with anticoagulants.

Storage conditions

All drugs, including painkillers, must be stored strictly observing the conditions for their storage. Usually storage conditions are indicated on the packaging. Most painkillers are recommended to be stored in their original packaging, in a dark place, protected from direct sunlight. Also, there should be no high humidity. Preparations should be kept away from heating sources, should be inaccessible to children and animals.

Shelf life

As a rule, the expiration date of the drug is indicated on the packaging. Most painkillers prescribed for cystitis are stored for an average of 2-3 years. It is impossible to use drugs after the expiration date, because they can cause intoxication, or at best, they will simply be ineffective. It should be borne in mind that the shelf life depends on the form of the drug: tablets are stored longer than infusions, solutions. In addition, it must be borne in mind that after opening the tincture or oral solution, it can be stored for an average of 1-3 months. After opening the ampoule for injection, its shelf life is 24 hours, subject to sterility.

What to do if painkillers for cystitis do not help?

There are times when painkillers do not help with cystitis. This may be due to the individual characteristics of the organism. It may also be associated with the development of addiction (resistance). If the patient is often ill or has a recurrent, chronic form of cystitis with frequent exacerbations that require painkillers, resistance may develop to them. In order to avoid this, you need to alternate drugs from different groups. If one pain reliever does not help with cystitis, you need to try another one belonging to a different pharmacological group. In addition, the lack of effect may be associated with the progression of the inflammatory and infectious process, with the development of complications. In this case, pain is a signal that the current condition is worsening. Therefore, it is recommended to use complex treatment, which will include anti-inflammatory drugs, antibacterial drugs. The normalization of the main processes in the body, the removal of inflammation, will contribute to the gradual reduction of pain.

Analogues

Analogues of painkillers, as such, do not exist. The fact is that painkillers are aimed directly at stopping pain. However, there are a number of drugs, the use of which can indirectly help reduce pain. For example, anti-inflammatory drugs are aimed at removing the inflammatory process, eliminating the main pathogenetic changes associated with cystitis. As the inflammatory process decreases, the pain gradually subsides. Antibacterial therapy is aimed at eliminating the infectious process, which often supports inflammation and causes the main symptoms of the pathology. [4]As the inflammatory and infectious process is eliminated, the pain subsides, as a result. Many homeopathic remedies, herbs, herbal remedies, herbal preparations can act as analogues of traditional painkillers.

• Painkillers suppositories for cystitis

Sometimes anesthetic suppositories are used for cystitis, as a means of symptomatic therapy. Suppositories are administered intravaginally (in women) and rectally (in women, in men). We can recommend the following painkillers suppositories for cystitis: pimafucin, fluconazole, nystatin, co-trimoxazole, suppositories with analgin, salicylic acid, nimesulin suppositories, analgesic and anti-inflammatory liniments.

Reviews

When analyzing the reviews, it was found that most of them are positive. Almost all patients point to the effectiveness of painkillers for cystitis (in terms of pain relief). The severity of the analgesic effect can be different: from a slight relief of the pain syndrome to its complete relief. Of course, the effectiveness depends on many factors: on the severity of the pathological process, on concomitant therapy, on the individual sensitivity of the organism, and also on the agent used. Most often, drugs such as analgin, aspirin, citron, citramine, 5-NOC, urolesan, paracetamol, ketopherol, ketonal are used. At the same time, an  anesthetic for cystitis  helps well for those who take these drugs infrequently. For patients suffering from frequent exacerbations and attacks of cystitis, the drugs help little, or a significant increase in dosage is required, a combination of several drugs.
