1. Conservative treatment combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine

In the clinical treatment of ulcerative colitis, the main emphasis is on conservative treatment combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine, which is one of the most effective treatments currently. Here, it is recommended that patients can take some mesalazine orally. Mesalazine is specifically used to treat ulcerative colitis. It is also the first choice drug in clinical practice, and the effect is very good. However, patients must be particularly careful to follow the doctor's instructions and take the medicine according to the course of treatment.

2. Combined with immunosuppressants

In addition, patients are advised to take medication together with some immunosuppressants, which can effectively help improve immunity and achieve twice the result with half the effort in the treatment of ulcerative colitis. Here we suggest that patients can use some of the medicines we commonly use in clinical practice, such as vitamin C effervescent tablets, transfer factor oral liquid, thymosin capsules, etc., the effects are very good. However, patients must be careful to avoid spicy foods while taking these medicines.

3. Anti-inflammatory

In addition, if the patient's condition is more serious, oral treatment with some anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriate, which can effectively help control local inflammatory responses. In clinical practice, the anti-inflammatory drugs we commonly use include levofloxacin hydrochloride, norfloxacin hydrochloride, ciprofloxacin hydrochloride, or oxytetracycline, tetracycline, etc., and their effects are all very good. However, patients taking these anti-inflammatory drugs must strictly follow the doctor's instructions.
