Patients with moderate cirrhosis can receive medication, surgery and other treatments as prescribed by the doctor to slow down the progress of the patient’s condition.
1. Drug treatment: if patients with moderate cirrhosis are infected with hepatitis B virus, they should use antiviral drugs such as entecavir and tenofovir as prescribed by doctors. If the patient has ascites, generalized edema and other symptoms, the patient needs to use furosemide, spironolactone and other diuretic drugs as prescribed by the doctor, and if necessary, the patient needs to input albumin to improve the colloid osmotic pressure.
2. Surgical treatment: If patients have persistent ascites and the effect of drug conservative treatment is not good, they can consider receiving transjugular vein portosystemic shunt treatment. Patients with moderate cirrhosis are prone to esophagogastric fundal vein rupture and bleeding, and need to cooperate with doctors to receive gastroscopic injection of sclerosing agent to stop bleeding, laparoscopic selective esophagogastric dissection splenectomy and other related treatments.
There are other clinical treatments for moderate cirrhosis. Because each patient’s condition is different, it is recommended to go to the hospital as soon as possible to receive personalized treatment under the guidance of a professional doctor, and medications should be used in accordance with the doctor’s instructions.
