Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Cao Zhiqiang
Medications used to treat seminal vesiculitis generally fall into the following categories:
1. Antibiotics: For bacterial seminal vesiculitis, antibiotics are the most commonly used treatment. Based on results of bacterial culture and antibiotic susceptibility testing, doctors will select appropriate antibiotics, such as cephalosporins, quinolones, etc.
2. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs): Seminal vesiculitis may cause local pain and discomfort. Anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs such as ibuprofen and acetaminophen can help alleviate symptoms such as pain and fever.
3. Alpha-blockers: Such as tamsulosin, these medications can relieve muscle tension in the bladder neck and prostate, improving urinary symptoms.
4. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) or Chinese proprietary medicine: For patients with chronic seminal vesiculitis, Chinese proprietary medicines such as Wuzi Yanzong Pills, Yougui Pills, Guilu Bushen Tablets, and Liwei Dihuang Pills have effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and can be used as adjunctive therapy.
5. Other medications: If hematospermia is severe, hemostatic agents such as diethylstilbestrol or tranexamic acid may be used; medications such as Powerful Loquat Syrup or Angelica dahurica oil, which have antiviral and antibacterial effects, may also be used, but specific usage must follow medical advice.
