[Efficacy of Vitaprost Forte in the treatment of adenoma].

Abstract

Pharmacotherapy with vitaprost forte was given to 40 patients with prostatic adenoma aged 55 to 77 years (mean age 67.6 +/- 0.9 years). Vitaprost forte suppositories were used once a day in the evening for 30 days. Micturition was assessed before the treatment, on the treatment day 15 and 30, 1 and 3 months after the treatment course. As the result of the treatment obstructive and irritative symptoms improved by 20%, on the average, Q(max) increased by 36.4%, residual urine decreased more than 3-fold. Therapeutic effects continued for 3 months and later. IPSS and other questionnaires indicated positive effects in quality of life.
