Abstract:
The review article is devoted to using modern combined herbal remedies for the treatment and prevention of urinary tract infections. From current point of view, the mechanisms of the pharmacological action of the components of Phytolysin preparations, paste for the preparation of a suspension for oral administration and Phytolysin capsules, are described in detail. The pathogenetic explanations of using herbal preparations in urological patients is given. The results of clinical studies are presented, confirming the efficiency of the use of drugs for the treatment and prevention of lower urinary tract infections. The new dosage form Phytolysin in the form of capsules does not differ in composition from the paste. Pharmacological effects and pathogenetic bases for the use of Fitolizin suggest that the new dosage form (capsules) is identical to the traditional, previously used one (paste).
