Antispasmodics for the kidneys

All kidney diseases are accompanied by pain, which causes discomfort to the patient. To relieve spasms of the muscles and blood vessels of the kidneys, drugs with an antispasmodic effect are used. At home, it is recommended to use products based on drotaverine. These include “No-shpa”, “Papaverine” and “Platifillin”. The listed medications have a gentle effect on the muscles of the organ and relieve spasm. However, they are not effective for colic or severe painful spasms. In this case, combined agents such as “Spazmalgon”, “Baralgin” and “Spazmonet” are useful. Before taking medication, you should consult your doctor.

Combination drugs

You can combine the effect of several medications in one. They act on the kidneys gently and without side effects.

Most combination drugs are made on a plant basis, so they can cause allergic reactions.

Canephron N (Germany)
. The therapeutic effect is provided by a medicinal complex of plant origin. The composition includes rosemary, lovage, centaury, thanks to which Canephron N is diuretic, analgesic, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory. Can be purchased in the form of tablets or drops.

Under the supervision of a doctor, herbal tablets are even taken to prevent diseases of the urinary system.

Analgesics for kidney diseases

Kidney tablets with an analgesic effect are divided into 2 groups: antipyretics and NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). Medicines of both groups are sold in pharmacies without a doctor's prescription. Antipyretics include the simplest painkillers, the main active ingredients of which are analgin or paracetamol. These include Analgin, Tempalgin, Nurofen and Panadol. In addition to pain relief, they also affect body temperature, gradually normalizing it. The second group of drugs consists of drugs with the property of reducing the inflammatory process. These include Citramon, Aspirin and Diclofenac. If the patient suffers from unbearable pain and the listed medications do not help, the doctor can use narcotic analgesics: Morphine, Promedol.

Nephroleptin

Nephroleptin is one of the most common herbal supplements for kidney support. It contains only natural ingredients that have an excellent effect on the excretion process and eliminate many kidney pathologies. These include:

knotweed herbs;
propolis extract;
lingonberry leaves;
bearberry leaves;
bearberry.

The recommended course of treatment is from 2 to 4 weeks. It is not advisable to take this medication during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Antiseptics and antibacterial drugs

If the cause of kidney disease is an infection, the doctor prescribes antiseptics to the patient. Their action covers the fight against harmful microorganisms, bacteria and fungi. For a quick recovery, antiseptics should be combined with drugs from other groups. Widely used antiseptic drugs include potassium salt, Pyranoside, Rifampicin and Levorin.

Antibacterial agents for kidney diseases have a semi-synthetic composition. Each drug has its own characteristics of action on the body and restrictions on use. Therefore, self-medication is unacceptable. Only the attending physician can prescribe correct and effective therapy. The average course duration is 12−14 days. Disappearance of symptoms is possible after 5-6 days of use. However, premature completion of the course is fraught with the disease becoming chronic. The most commonly prescribed drugs are Amoxicillin, Nalidix and Cefaclor.

Diuretic medicines for kidney treatment

One of the consequences of kidney disease is disruption of their functioning. As a result, excess fluid and harmful salts accumulate in tissues and organs. To normalize function, diuretics are used. Doctors distinguish several groups of diuretics:

Thiazide drugs are characterized by rapid action. The result occurs 1-2 hours after administration and lasts up to 14 hours. Their advantage is the almost zero yield of useful substances along with urine. The popularity of this group for kidney diseases is explained by its ease of use, but they have a number of contraindications. Thiazide drugs include Hypothiazide and Hydrochlorothiazide.
Loops are used in hospital settings, when excess fluid needs to be quickly removed from the patient’s body. The result comes after 15-20 minutes. The use of loop diuretics at home can provoke an imbalance of substances. Drug names: Ethacrynic acid, Furosemide and Bufenox.
Potassium-sparing people drink at the initial stage of illness. Their results come as the active substance accumulates in the body. The first effect is visible 1-2 days after the start of administration. The advantage is the preservation of potassium and magnesium levels in the body. The names of the group's products are: Aldactone, Veroshpiron and Spironolactone.
Osmotic drugs are prescribed in case of exacerbation of diseases. After normalization of the condition, their use is canceled. The most popular remedy is Mannitol.

Normalize kidney function

During disorders, excess fluids and toxins accumulate in the kidneys. To remove them, diuretics are prescribed during treatment:

Furosemide (Russia)
. Analog – Lasix (France). The effect is achieved within half an hour. The daily dose is 40 mg once.

Inexpensive medications help restore the urinary process.

Drugs that dissolve stones

Kidney medications for urolithiasis perform the functions of crushing and removing stones and sand from the organs. For this purpose, you can take medications of synthetic origin or herbal remedies. Doctors often combine these groups to achieve quick results. The list of drugs is quite large, so for the correct selection you should consult a doctor. The best synthetic drugs: Panangin, Blemaren and Allopurinol. A good tendency for stones to pass is observed if the German drug Rovatinex is used. A good effect is obtained from such products as Urolesan, Renon Duo and Canephron.

Benefits of herbal preparations

Such products (unlike synthetic drugs) act more gently. At the same time, they are also quite effective. Herbal remedies have fewer side effects and contraindications and can be prescribed to children and pregnant women.

Herbal kidney tablets contain extracts of medicinal plants:

bearberry;
licorice;
calendula;
horsetail;
lovage root;
centaury;
birch leaves;
knotweed herbs;
fenugreek seeds;
rosemary.

The medicines also contain many essential oils - sage, pine, mint, etc. Herbs help remove excess water from the body, help break down stones and restore kidney function. Herbal uroantiseptics relieve inflammation, prevent complications and relapses of the disease.

Herbal remedies for the kidneys

Herbal preparations are allowed for children and pregnant women. There is only one contraindication - individual intolerance to the ingredients of the composition.

Is Chinese medicine effective?

Chinese medicine is based on the theory that every human organ is given energy at birth. Moreover, it should remain unchanged for as long as possible. To do this, you need to feed your organs with the energy of the outside world. As soon as the energy given at birth begins to be wasted, illnesses begin. The Chinese consider the kidneys to be one of the main organs. If all their energy is wasted, the person dies. To maintain the organ, you should perform a special set of exercises:

Stand straight, legs in line with your shoulders, feet parallel to each other. Your back should be kept straight. While inhaling, smoothly raise your arms, palms down, to shoulder level. As you exhale, smoothly tilt your body to the right, while your arms should maintain their original position. Lower yourself until your right hand touches the floor. Direct your gaze to your raised left hand. Relax. Inhale and slowly return to the starting position. Do the same in the other direction.
Stand straight, tense your legs and buttocks as much as possible. Inhale slowly and hold your breath. Count to 10. At the same time, place your hands on the kidneys (on the back below the ribs) and press on each kidney in turn. At the same time, try to bend your back as deeply as possible.
The starting position is similar to the second exercise. The difference is that pressure is replaced with light spanking. It is recommended to wet your hands with cold water. This technique is needed to improve blood circulation.

Main directions of influence of drug therapy

In a comprehensive fight against pathology, you should not limit yourself to using only one drug, because according to statistics, the most effective method is therapy using up to 5 different types of drugs for the treatment of kidneys. This is understandable, since any disease is characterized by a special composition of symptoms that manifest themselves with varying strength, and possible complications must be warned in advance in order to avoid a dangerous inflammatory process that can lead to death in the patient. Effective medicines for the treatment of kidneys must have the following qualities:

Prevention of complications;
normalization of the patient’s general condition;
getting rid of obvious symptoms accompanying the disease;
precise targeting of the cause of the disease and its subsequent elimination.

The direction of the effect of drug therapy is determined by the specific diagnosis made by the attending physician. Only after the specialist has accurately identified the pathology should it be necessary to begin prescribing the appropriate treatment. In one case, it is important to promptly remove stones, in another, to get rid of pronounced symptoms, in the third, it is necessary to clean the ureteral channels for normal urine outflow. But the general rule when prescribing a drug for a kidney disease is to keep the use of a large number of tablets to a minimum while maximizing the positive effect.

To comply with this rule, tablets for the treatment of kidneys must have the following properties that promote rapid relief from pathology:

contains a high concentration of active substance, which contributes to the creation in the urine and blood of an unfavorable environment for the development of unwanted microorganisms;
antimicrobial effect on pathogens;
the ability to prevent pathogen resistance to antibiotic exposure.

Suppositories for kidney diseases

Medicines for the genitourinary system in the form of suppositories are often used for men and women. The product "Palin" is widely used. It has an antibacterial effect. Visible results occur 1-2 hours after administration. The preventive effect of the drug extends to patients prone to relapses. For vaginal infectious diseases in women, “Palin” is prescribed in combination with other drugs. “Phytosuppositories No. 5” are used for kidney diseases in acute and chronic forms. The drug contains natural ingredients that, when combined, help cleanse the genitourinary system. They also help restore kidney function after illness. Recommended dosage: 1-2 suppositories per day. The duration of the course is 10 days. After this, you should take 10 days of rest and repeat taking the drug. The number of courses is determined by the doctor.

Folk remedies for kidney prevention

For prevention, you can use folk recipes along with medications to enhance the preventive effect.

Recommended recipes used by patients suffering from pathologies of the urinary system:

A medium bunch of parsley is thoroughly washed, placed in a 1-liter jar and poured with boiling water. The product is kept until the liquid acquires a characteristic greenish tint. The parsley infusion is drunk for three days, after which the medicine is prepared again. The course of therapy is 21 days.
Birch buds, bearberry leaves and yarrow are prepared in equal volumes. Pour two tablespoons of the mixture into two glasses of boiling water and leave until it cools completely. The resulting product is taken within 24 hours. The course of prophylaxis is 10 days.
The most used folk remedy for kidney problems is cranberry berries, as well as lingonberries. The berry is ground with sugar until a pleasant-tasting medicine is achieved, after which it is used for two weeks, one teaspoon at a time.

General principles of kidney therapy

Urinary syndrome that develops due to pathology of the urinary system is treated taking into account the causes that led to the development of the disease. But kidney pathology is also accompanied by a variety of specific symptoms. Most often, the patient presents various complaints of discomfort and dysfunction of the genitourinary system. In patients, depending on the type of disease and the nature of the pathology, the manifestations of the disease may differ in strength and different combinations of symptoms that worsen the quality of life. Therefore, in order to effectively treat kidney pathology, it is necessary to use not only medications that eliminate the source of damage to the organ, but also drugs that eliminate or reduce various manifestations of the disease.

To successfully treat kidneys, you need to choose medications that have the following properties:

elimination of the causes of the pathological process and conditions favorable to its development;
prevention of complications;
reduction of symptoms that worsen the patient’s quality of life;
improving the general well-being of the patient.

To achieve these goals, the doctor can prescribe up to five to six types of drugs belonging to different pharmacological groups.

Myotropic drugs:

Otilonium bromide;
Pinaveria bromide;
Mebeverine;
Drotaverine;
Atropine sulfate.

Neurotropic - slow down nerve signals transmitted to the fibers of muscle groups. The group of muscles surrounding the urinary canal relaxes, and pain goes away.

Scopolamine;
Hyoscine butyl bromide;
Methacin chlorosyl.

Also common antispasmodic tablets for pain relief:

No-shpa;
Papaverine.

For renal colic, combined action agents are considered effective:

Spasmonet.

To dissolve stones

Used to prevent the inflammatory process caused by urolithiasis . Almost 90% of this group of medicines are herbal medicines. They have an additional antiseptic, diuretic and analgesic effect:

Blemaren.

An expensive drug with a good therapeutic effect. Available in the form of tablets for dissolution in water. The daily dose is selected taking into account the size of the stone and can be 2-6 tablets. Reception is carried out for two to six months.

Rowatinex.

A classic drug for removing stones. In the standard course of the disease, to free the urinary tract and kidneys from fractions, 1-2 capsules of Rowatinex are prescribed three times a day. If the condition is complicated by renal colic, the single dose of the active ingredient can be increased to 3 capsules five times a day.

Canephron N.

An effective remedy with a complex effect. Can be used in infancy. Dosages and course of administration are established individually for each patient. Adult patients take 2 tablets or 50 drops three times a day.

When prescribing medications in this group simultaneously, medications with a diuretic effect should be carefully selected. If the combination is incorrect, the functioning of the urinary system can worsen.

Etiology of diseases

According to statistics, every 10th patient has some kind of problem with kidney function. For every disorder or acute symptom, there is a cause.

Type of inflammation	Pathogens	What pathology is caused
Infectious	Ureaplasma, Trichomonas, Gardnerella and other sexually transmitted infections.	Vesicoureteral reflux, cystitis, urethritis.
Bacterial	Escherichia coli, salmonella, klebsiella, staphylococci, enterococci and other opportunistic bacteria.	Renal nephrosclerosis, urolithiasis, cystitis, urethritis, vesicoureteral reflux.

If the influence of microorganisms has caused structural changes in the tissue, then treatment can be difficult and lengthy. It is necessary to complete the full course to exclude chronic pathology and loss of sensitivity of pathogens to drugs. The composition of drug therapy depends on the results of diagnostics and tests.

The main therapeutic direction will be to achieve the following goals:

elimination of symptoms of the disease;
search and elimination of all causes of the disease (destruction of the pathogen, restoration of immunity, anti-inflammatory measures);
restoration of full functioning and functions of the kidneys.

Kidneys hurt, what pills should I take? Drug therapy involves taking several medications simultaneously in order to have maximum impact on the causes of the pathology.

Analgesics

It is believed that if you have pain in the kidneys, you should take analgesics and go to bed. Which ones are better to drink? Today you can find two groups of drugs in pharmacies:

Antiperetics - have antipyretic and analgesic effects. These include Panadol, Efferalgan, Analgin, Nurofen, Tempalgin.
NSAIDs are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This group includes Nimesan, Indomethacin, Diclofenac, Aspirin.

Despite the high effectiveness of NSAIDs, a large number of contraindications and adverse reactions make it impossible to take such drugs for a long time. Therefore, they try to replace non-steroidal analgesics with Baralgin.

For painful, haunting sensations, the doctor may prescribe narcotic painkillers - Promedol, Morphine.

Etiotropic and pathogenetic drugs

First of all, the doctor selects medications for kidney damage that eliminate the effect of the pathogenic agent that caused the disease. Also, drugs are selected that influence the course of pathological processes in the organ and trigger regenerative mechanisms leading to recovery. In addition to being highly aggressive against the causative agent of the disease, etiotropic and pathogenetic drugs for the treatment of kidneys must meet the following criteria:

Do not cause rapid development of resistance to the active principle in pathogens;
Do not have a toxic effect on the patient’s organs and systems.
Well tolerated by the patient's body.
Have a minimal risk of developing adverse reactions.

Medicines should only be prescribed by a doctor. But every patient should know the effect of prescribed medications on the course of the pathological process, their dosage regimens and recommended therapeutic doses.

Most often, the cause of kidney and urinary tract diseases is pathogenic microflora. Without a narrowly targeted specific action of medications, one should not count on the effectiveness of treatment.

The pathogen can enter the organ in various ways. Most often, an ascending infection develops when bacteria, fungi or viruses enter the kidneys from the genitals or bladder. Pathogenic microflora can enter the urinary system from other organs through the blood or lymph flow.

Therefore, in order to cure the disease, the doctor prescribes antibiotics and other antimicrobial drugs that have the ability to concentrate in the affected organ, while having maximum aggressiveness against the pathogen. Also, antibacterial drugs for the treatment of kidneys should be excreted from the body primarily through urine, but not have a toxic effect on the urinary system.

The following agents have the widest spectrum of action:

Amoxicillin. Most often, this medicine, part of the penicillin group, is used for kidney diseases. Depending on the severity of the pathological process, 0.5 to 1 g is prescribed per dose. You need to take the tablets three times a day.
Rifampicin. The therapeutic dose is from 3 to 6 tablets per day, divided into 2-3 doses. For kidney disease, you need to take capsules for a week to 10 days.
Nitrofurantoin. This drug is also available under the name Furadonin. Pills should be taken 1-2 times a day. The duration of therapy depends on the form of the disease. In the acute form, the drug is taken for one and a half weeks. Repeated treatment requires longer medication use, from 3 months to a year.

In each case, the doctor decides which medicine should be chosen only after a bacteriological examination. Therapy will be effective only if the pathogen does not have resistance to the drug.

To eliminate inflammatory processes, drugs from the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory substances (NSAIDs) are used. Any remedy from this group effectively helps with lesions of various organs, including the urinary system. NSAIDs will eliminate pain in the kidneys and relieve swelling of the organ.

Kidney treatment will be more effective if you take the following anti-inflammatory drugs:
