Some vitiligo patients don't know yet, and you need to pay attention to these when taking medicine
Nowadays, drug therapy is the most common treatment method. Many people have symptoms such as colds, fever, and headaches. They don’t need to see a doctor. They can almost get better by going to the pharmacy to buy some medicines. But more complex 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 vitiligo, damage personal image, its actual harm is actually not big. However, wrong medication may lead to liver injury, body weight gain, and large-scale spread of vitiligo, which often makes patients miserable. Therefore, these wrong medication methods must be corrected as soon as possible.
- Blindly increase the dosage. Some vitiligo patients are too eager to get rid of whitening. When they find that the medicine does not work immediately, they start to increase the dosage, which is prone to side effects. Drugs all have certain side effects, and standardizing the use of drugs is to minimize the side effects of drugs. Blindly increasing the amount of medication will not recover faster, and it is likely to have the opposite effect.
2, blind use of drugs. There are not only one or two kinds of drugs to treat vitiligo, but many, but different drugs are applicable to different conditions, so they must not be used indiscriminately, and it is best to have the guidance of a professional doctor. Medicines that are useful to other vitiligo patients may not be useful to themselves. If they cannot be used for their conditions, they are also blindly used. Everyone should be vigilant.
- Frequent replacement of treatment drugs. The recovery speed of vitiligo is slow, and the treatment cycle is long. If you find that the vitiligo treatment effect is poor and you want to change the treatment method, you also need to do it under the guidance of a doctor. Removal of whitening requires sufficient patience, and it is hoped that the patient will persist in the treatment for a period of time to determine whether the treatment is effective enough.
Although drug treatment is the most common, patients with vitiligo cannot completely rely on drug treatment. Some patients are only willing to use drugs for treatment because they are afraid of trouble or busy with work and study. Although drug treatment is convenient, it is not necessarily the best choice for whitening. Long-term medication will also have problems such as drug resistance and liver damage, and patients need to be used with caution. In addition to drug treatment, these methods are also very effective in removing whitening.
For example, light therapy does not conflict with drug therapy, but can promote each other. Drug therapy is often more effective when combined with light therapy. Moreover, the 308 laser is very safe and suitable for children and pregnant women. There is also epidermal transplantation, which is in the stable period, and the effect is very significant. Finding the right treatment method will undoubtedly make it easier to get rid of whitening.
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 everyone an early success in removing whitening.
