[Potentials for the phytotherapy in patients with chronic pyelonephritis]

We observed 66 patients with chronic pyelonephritis in the exacerbation phase who received standard treatment with antibacterial drugs based on susceptibility of causative agents. All patients were randomly divided into two groups. Patients of study group have received phytodrug prolit super septo 2 capsules 2 times a day for 4 weeks in addition to standard treatment. Patients of control group have received standard therapy only. As a result of treatment, high effectiveness of therapy and reduction of length of treatment was noted in the study group. There were no subjective symptoms of disease in all patients at the end of treatment. Reduction of leykocituria and bacteriuria, normalization of body temperature, normalization of blood analysis and restoration of intrarenal blood flow were observed earlier in the study group compared with the control group. Recurrence of disease 3 months after end of treatment was not revealed in none of the patient in the study group, whereas it was noted in 14% of patients in the control group.
