Hydroxyethyldimethyldihydropyrimidine (Xymedone) effectively treats chronic recurrent cystitis by accelerating bladder mucosa regeneration and significantly prolonging remission periods. This study found no relapses in patients treated with Xymedone over two years.
Area of Science:
- Urology
- Pharmacology
- Gastroenterology
Background:
- Chronic recurrent cystitis (HC) significantly impacts women's quality of life.
- Standard treatments for HC often have limited long-term efficacy.
- Investigating novel therapeutic agents is crucial for improving HC management.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the efficacy of hydroxyethyldimethyldihydropyrimidine (Xymedone) in treating chronic recurrent cystitis in women.
- To assess Xymedone's impact on bladder mucosa regeneration and remission duration.
Main Methods:
- A study involving 60 women diagnosed with chronic recurrent cystitis.
- 30 patients received standard treatment plus Xymedone (500 mg thrice daily for 30 days) after local therapy.
- Control group (30 patients) received standard treatment only; cystoscopies monitored bladder mucosa recovery.
Main Results:
- Xymedone treatment led to faster bladder mucosa regeneration and reduced low urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) compared to the control group.
- After 30 days, patients on Xymedone showed normalized laboratory parameters and improved bladder capacity.
- No recurrence of HC was observed in the Xymedone group during a two-year follow-up, versus 51% in the control group.
Conclusions:
- Hydroxyethyldimethyldihydropyrimidine (Xymedone) is effective in accelerating bladder mucosa healing post-treatment for recurrent cystitis.
- Xymedone significantly extends the duration of persistent remission in patients with chronic recurrent cystitis.
- Xymedone represents a promising therapeutic option for managing chronic recurrent cystitis.
