For patients with gallbladder stones, medication can be tried to dissolve the stones if they are small, but should be discontinued if there is no effect on repeat examinations. If the stones are in a quiescent state, there is no need to take any medication, because the drug lithotripsy program has basically been abandoned by the clinic due to its inaccurate efficacy.
If in the gallbladder stone triggered acute cholecystitis, you can follow the doctor’s instructions for a short period of time to take some antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory, choleretic drugs, such as diclofenac, ketoprofen, scopolamine, cefuroxime, etc., to relieve the symptoms. If the stones are large or the biliary colic is recurrent, surgical removal of the gallbladder may need to be considered first rather than medication.
When gallstones are diagnosed, they should be reviewed regularly. If discomfort occurs, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible to choose the appropriate treatment plan based on your specific condition.
