Treatment of cystic fibrosis
There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. Therapy is reduced to the relief of symptoms, prevention and treatment of infection. Medicines are given to thin the lung, dilate the bronchi, improve the absorption and digestion of food, as well as support the functions of the pancreas and liver. It is important to start respiratory rehabilitation and dietary treatment as early as possible. It is necessary to clean the respiratory tract from the remaining discharge every day.
