Fatty liver hepatosis - one of the most common chronic diseases of the body, in which its cells are transformed into connective (scar tissue), losing its functionality. This is a noninflammatory pathology associated with metabolic abnormalities at the cellular level, leading to the accumulation of fatty acids in hepatocytes. Most often, fatty hepatosis affects people suffering from excessive body weight, diabetes, alcohol abusers and adhering to strict vegetarianism.
The insidiousness of this disease lies in the fact that for a long time it does not show any clinical symptoms and can be detected in the early stages only through methods of instrumental and laboratory diagnostics. Therefore, most often diagnosed fatty hepatosis of the second or third degree, manifested by attacks of nausea, pain and discomfort in the right hypochondrium, a violation of the stool, rashes on the skin, decreased visual acuity, etc.
How to treat fatty liver hepatosis with medications?
Complex therapy of fatty liver hepatosis necessarily includes the use of tablets, and in the diagnosis of severe lesions - drugs in injection form. The action of the main drugs prescribed for the treatment of fatty hepatosis is aimed at eliminating the causes that caused pathology, normalizing metabolic processes in the body, restoring liver cells and its functions. As a rule, a rather lengthy therapy is required.
Medication for fatty liver hepatosis may include the use of the following drugs:
- Cholesterol anti-cholesterol drugs for correction of lipid metabolism, which contribute to a decrease in the total level of fats in the body (including liver tissues), and also slow down the growth of pathological cells (Vazilip, Atoris, Krestor, etc.).
- Vasodilators improving microcirculation and viscous blood properties, thereby normalizing metabolic processes, transport of nutrients and oxygen in tissues, as well as excretion of metabolic products and toxic substances (Trental, Curantil, Vasonite, etc.).
- Means that improve metabolic activity - vitamin B12 , folic acid.
- Essential phospholipids (Essentiale, Essler forte, Phosphogliv, etc.) are drugs that have a hepatoprotective effect, stimulate the restoration of damaged liver cells, activate metabolic processes in them, and also contribute to the increase in the stability of liver cells to harmful substances and their detoxification.
- Sulfamic amino acids (Methionine, Heptral, Taurine, etc.) are antioxidant agents that stimulate the synthesis of phospholipids in the body, which in addition improve hepatic blood flow, help remove excess fats from hepatocytes, reduce the viscosity of bile and normalize carbohydrate metabolism.
- Ursodeoxycholic acid (Ursosan, Livedaxa, Ursofalk, etc.) is bile acid, which possesses hepatoprotective, choleretic, immunomodulating, hypocholesterolemic and antifibrotic properties.
- Enzyme preparations (Pansinorm, Festal, Creon , etc.) are medicines that improve the digestive processes and eliminate symptoms such as nausea, belching, stool disorders, etc.
Medicines for live hepatosis are appointed individually, taking into account the degree of liver damage, the causes of pathology and related disorders. We must not forget that with the help of medicines alone it will not be possible to heal - it is necessary to adhere to the right diet, normalize physical activity, abandon bad habits.
