Some leukoplakia patients don't know it yet, and you need to pay attention to these when taking medication
Medication is the most common way of treatment nowadays. Many people don't need to see a doctor when they have symptoms such as cold, fever, and headache. But more complicated and serious diseases cannot be dealt with so hastily. For example, if there is a medication error in vitiligo, it may cause more serious consequences.
Vitiligo is not painful or itchy. If it is not easy to spread and damage the personal image, its actual harm is actually not great. However, wrong medication may lead to liver injury, body fat, large-scale spread of leukoplakia, etc., which often make patients miserable. Therefore, these wrong medication methods must be corrected as soon as possible.
- Blindly increase the dosage. Some patients with vitiligo are too eager to get rid of whiteness, and when they find that the medicine does not work immediately, they start to increase the dosage, which is prone to side effects. All drugs have certain side effects, and the purpose of standardizing drug use is to minimize the side effects of drugs. Blindly increasing the dosage of medication will not restore faster, and it may have a counterproductive effect.
Blind use of drugs. There are not only one or two medicines for treating vitiligo, but many, but different medicines are suitable for different conditions, so they must not be used indiscriminately, and it is best to have the guidance of a professional doctor. Drugs that are useful to other vitiligo patients may not be useful to themselves. If the drug cannot be used according to the condition, it is blindly using the drug. Everyone should be vigilant.
Frequent replacement of therapeutic drugs. The recovery speed of vitiligo is slow, and the treatment cycle is long. If it cannot be treated for a period of time and there is no effect, the medicine will be changed. If you find that the treatment effect of leukoplakia is poor and you want to change the treatment method, you also need to do it under the guidance of a doctor. Whitening requires enough patience. It is hoped that patients will persist in the treatment for a period of time before they can be sure that the treatment is effective enough.
Although drug therapy is the most common, patients with leukoplakia cannot completely rely on drug therapy. Some patients are only willing to use drugs because they are afraid of trouble, or busy with work and study. Although drug treatment is very convenient, it is not necessarily the best choice for whitening. Long-term medication will also cause problems such as drug resistance and liver damage, so patients need to use it with caution. In addition to drug treatment, these methods are also very effective in whitening.
For example, phototherapy does not conflict with drug therapy, but can promote each other. Drug therapy combined with phototherapy is often more effective. Moreover, the 308 laser is very safe and suitable for children and pregnant women. There is also epidermis transplantation, which is very effective in the stable period and the leukoplakia is not too large. Finding a suitable treatment method will undoubtedly make whitening easier.
The above is an analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of how to use medication and drug treatment. I hope it can be helpful to everyone. I wish you all success in removing whitening as soon as possible.
