[size=4][b]Bronchitis Treatment - Bronchitis Medications - Learn More about Various Treatments[/b][/size][hr]Basically, bronchitis is of two types--acute and chronic bronchitis. Although the names of the two are similar, there is a whale of a difference between them because they are caused by different agents. Therefore, there are different types of medicines for bronchitis.

[size=large][b]Medicines for Acute Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]First and foremost, the medicines for acute bronchitis aim to get rid of the symptoms of the disease. People diagnosed with acute bronchitis need to drink plenty of water and fruit juices, stop smoking for good, take plenty of rest, relax as much as possible, and use humidifiers in their houses. The doctor prescribes medicines such as acetaminophen if the disease is accompanied by mild fever and pain. Sometimes, aspirin is also taken. However, pregnant women and children should not take aspirin because it is suspected to cause heavy bleeding in pregnant women and Reye's syndrome in children.

[size=large][b]Chronic Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]Chronic bronchitis is characterized by inflammation of the respiratory tract. A common symptom is a persistent, productive cough that is accompanied by lots of phlegm. Unlike acute bronchitis, chronic bronchitis is a long-term disorder, and its symptoms are visible for three months to two years. The completion of this article on Chronic Bronchitis was our prerogative since the past one month. However, we completed it within a matter of fifteen days!

Quote:The anti-inflammatory drugs that are commonly prescribed for chronic bronchitis are ipratropium, which reduces the production of mucus and coriticosteroids such as prednisone that can be received either intravenously or orally. Bronchodilators such as metaproterenol and albuterol help loosen the bronchial muscles and this, in turn, increases the flow of air in the air passages. Bronchodilators can be either inhaled through a nebulizer, which is a medical device used to transport medication to the respiratory tract, or taken orally. The information available on Bronchitis Common is infinite. There just seems to be so much to learn about, and to write about on Bronchitis Common.

Inhalation of certain irritants may lie at the root of chronic bronchitis. Some examples of irritants are cigarette smoke or air pollution or a mixture of both. The disease progresses slowly, and the most common groups diagnosed with chronic bronchitis comprise the elderly and the middle-aged. Using great confidence in ourselves, we endeavored to write such a long article on Chronic Bronchitis. Such is the amount of matter found on Chronic Bronchitis.

Elderly people, young children, and babies are the common victims of acute bronchitis. The immune systems of infants and young children are still in the growing phase, and this makes them susceptible to the disease while the immune systems of old people are weakened with age. Smokers and people who already have a lung or heart ailment stand the risk of contracting actue bronchitis. People living in polluted areas also commonly suffer from acute bronchitis. The sources used for the information for this article on Bronchitis Treatment are all dependable ones. This is so that there be no confusion in the authenticity of the article.

[size=large][b]Acute Bronchitis[/b][/size][hr]Acute bronchitis is common during the winter and does not last for a long time. A viral or a bacterial infection or both usually follows this condition. This disorder does not require any special treatment. It clears within a couple of weeks; however, the cough may persist for a longer time. There is a danger of acute bronchitis leading to pneumonia. It was with great relief we ended writing on Chronic Bronchitis. There was just too much information to write, that we were starting to lose hopes on it's completion!

Case of bacterial infection, an antibiotic should be taken as prescribed by the doctor. A person who neglects to take antibiotics is in danger of suffering a relapse. In addition, the bacteria could produce a variant that is immune to medication. Antibiotic medicines include clarithromycin, azithromycin, trimethoprim or sulfamethazole, and so on. Children below the age of eight are given amoxocillin instead of tetracyclin. Tetracyclin is suspected to cause discoloration of new teeth in young children.

Case of dry cough, the patient can take an anti-cough medicine. But if it is cough accompanied by phlegm, it is advisable not to take any anti-cough medicine and to allow the body to cleanse itself. If such a cough is suppressed with an anti-cough medicine, the phlegm may accumulate in the lungs and host dangerous microbes. An expectorant is more advisable than an anti-cough medicine because it liquefies the thick mucus in the air passages and makes it easy for the patient to cough it out. We have also translated parts of this composition into French and Spanish to facilitate easier understanding of Bronchitis Medicines. In this way, more people will get to understand the composition.

Medicines for Chronic Bronchitis Medicines for chronic bronchitis are different from those prescribed for acute bronchitis because it is a more complicated condition. Physicians carefully examine patients for other medical conditions before designing a treatment plan to control and manage the disease. Treatment also includes massive changes in lifestyle such as giving up smoking for good and moving to cleaner, non-polluted areas. Regular exercise also helps the patient deal with chronic bronchitis in a more effective manner.
