Lung cancer patients in the late stage have severe wheezing. What medicine is suitable for the treatment?

When patients with advanced lung cancer experience dyspnea, they can follow the doctor's advice to use cough and expectorant drugs, bronchodilators, and glucocorticoids for treatment. It is recommended to use the drugs under the guidance of a doctor to avoid adverse reactions.

1. Cough and phlegm-relieving drugs

1. Dextromethorphan hydrobromide: This drug is a centrally acting antitussive drug with a strong antitussive effect. It is mainly used clinically to relieve cough symptoms caused by various reasons;

2. Ambroxol hydrochloride oral solution: It is an expectorant that can reduce the amount of respiratory mucus secretion and promote the secretion of alveolar surfactant, thereby diluting sputum and facilitating the excretion of sputum from the body. It has a certain help in improving the patient's discomfort symptoms.

2. Bronchodilator drugs

If the patient has obvious breathing difficulties, he or she can take medications such as terbutaline sulfate tablets under the guidance of a doctor. These drugs can relax bronchial smooth muscles, thereby achieving the effect of dilating the bronchi, which helps improve the above conditions.

3. Glucocorticoid drugs

Such as dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection, prednisolone acetate injection, etc., these drugs can inhibit the aggregation and release of inflammatory cells, reduce the congestion and edema of local tissues, and thus alleviate the patient's clinical symptoms.

In addition to the more common drugs mentioned above, there are other types of drugs, such as antibiotics, anti-tumor drugs, etc., which need to be targeted according to the specific cause of the disease. At the same time, you also need to pay attention to maintaining good eating habits and avoid eating spicy foods, such as peppers and garlic.
