Preservation of prostate function is important for maintaining male sexual activity and well -being.Prevention of prostatitis in men is relevant at any age and important after 50 years, when the risk of morbidity increases.To prevent this disease, several modern drugs have been developed that are effective in preventing degenerative processes in healthy glandular tissue. Medications for prophylactic purposes can be taken in the acute form of prostatitis, preventing the chronic course of the disease.
Principles of prevention
Prophylactic drug therapy of prostatitis with drugs, as well as biologically active additives aims to:
- prevention of inflammatory processes in glandular tissue;
- fight infections that cause prostate disease;
- increased microcirculation of blood and outflow of secretions;
- normalization of metabolism in the prostate gland and adjacent organs, their nutrition;
- increased local immunity of glandular cells;
- infection prevention, including sexually transmitted infections;
- control of sex hormone levels and ratios;
- potential increase.
To complete the assigned task, a group of drugs of various exposure spectra was used. If necessary, complex therapy can be prescribed.
| Types of drugs | For what their actions are designed |
