Prostatitis is considered one of the most common pathologies of the prostate in the stronger sex. In this case, inflammation of the prostate can proceed slowly or progress at lightning speed. In the second case, we are talking about the acute form of the disease, and in the first, the chronic form.
A bit about the disease
A rapidly developing prostatitis can be easily treated, but a slow-moving pathology needs a long, complex therapy, which includes a mandatory course of anti-infective drugs and herbal remedies such as Prostamol Uno. This medication has become very popular among men suffering from prostatic hyperplasia and dysuric disorders. It was for the treatment of such problems that Prostamol Uno was developed.
In the treatment of prostatitis, this drug or other herbal remedies with similar properties, as well as antibacterial drugs and alpha-blockers, are prescribed without fail.
Composition and form of release
"Prostamol Uno" is available in capsule form for oral use. Each dragee has a dense dark red shell, inside of which there is a brown substance with a greenish tint. The main active ingredient of the drug is an extract from sabal palm fruits (for alcohol), it is thanks to this component that the medicine has its main therapeutic properties. Each capsule contains approximately 320 mg of this ingredient.
In addition, the composition of the drug includes auxiliary components:
- black iron oxide;
- glycerol;
- distilled water;
- succinyl gelatin;
- dye;
- titanium dioxide.
"Prostamol Uno" is available in cardboard packages, each of which contains 1, 2 or 4 contour blisters with 15 capsules.
Pharmacokinetics
The main active ingredient of the drug has vasoprotective, anti-inflammatory and antiandrogenic properties, due to which the agent significantly reduces the severity of the clinical picture of prostate adenoma.
The mechanism of action of the drug is to reduce the production of the reductase enzyme, which accelerates the production of dihydrotestosterone. A decrease in the level of this substance, in turn, helps to suppress the production of protein compounds, which, getting into the nucleus, affect the nerve endings that control the metabolic rate in prostate cells.
An extract from sabal fruits reduces the number of prostaglandins that are responsible for inflammatory processes in the tissues. Against this background, the symptoms of the pathological phenomenon and spasms of the smooth muscles of the urethra, which accompany benign hyperplasia, decrease. The activity of the lower part of the apparatus and tone are fully restored.
The properties
In addition, the drug has anti-edematous and anti-inflammatory properties. Dwarf palm extract blocks the oxidation of lipids, while preventing the formation of dangerous free radicals. This effect is especially pronounced around the second month of taking the medication. As already mentioned, Prostamol Uno helps to relax the smooth muscles of blood vessels. In etiology, this is manifested in a significant improvement in erectile function.
There is currently no data on exactly how the drug is absorbed and distributed throughout the body and excreted.
Indications for use
The use of "Prostamol Uno" is advisable for prostatitis, which is characterized by symptoms such as:
- difficulty emptying the bladder;
- urinary retention;
- decreased urine flow;
- pain in the abdomen, groin;
- leakage;
- regular urination.
In general, this pathology is characterized by many signs associated with disorders of the urination process.
According to the instructions for use, "Prostamol Uno" is intended for the treatment of functional malfunctions of the prostate, which are combined with benign hyperplasia in the initial stages. In addition, the drug is used to reduce the severity of inflammation, as well as dysuria.
Efficiency
As already mentioned, Prostamol Uno is available in capsule form for oral administration. Fully trust in advertising, saying that the drug is able to solve absolutely all men's problems should not be, because it consists of herbal ingredients and has a rather gentle effect. Radical changes from the use of "Prostamol Uno" (according to reviews) do not occur, however, if taken correctly, it is very useful for many prostate pathologies. As a rule, a remedy is prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment.
Unlike most of these herbal medicines, Prostamol Uno is a complete medicine, not a nutritional supplement. Its healing properties have been proven through clinical trials, which were carried out not only in domestic spaces, but also abroad. The effectiveness of the drug was studied 15 years ago, having tested it on patients with a chronic form of prostatitis.
After completing the full course of therapy, 8% of men significantly reduced pain in the pelvic area, and another 75% of patients returned to normal flow of excreted urine. According to the results of numerous studies, patients with a chronic form of prostatitis felt significant relief (88% of all cases). Scientists also paid special attention to the quality of life of men who participated in the trials.
Instructions for use "Prostamol Uno"
Reviews about the drug only confirm the high effectiveness of the drug. But this applies only to those cases when patients adhere to all the instructions of the attending physician and do not independently change the permissible dosage. With proper treatment, the result from the use of the drug becomes noticeable just a few days after the start of the course.
Most often, "Prostamol Uno" is prescribed to men with a chronic form of prostatitis in parallel with other medicines. This allows you to eliminate edema, reduce pain during emptying of the bladder, and also get rid of violations in its work. In addition, the drug helps to reduce the amount of night urine due to improved blood flow in this area.
The specific dosage and duration of use of the product can only be determined by a specialist. According to the instructions and reviews, "Prostamol Uno" must be taken one capsule 1 time per day after meals. In this case, the product can not be chewed or absorbed, it should be swallowed in order to achieve the fastest and most effective therapeutic effect. And so that the capsule is easily absorbed by the body, it is advisable to drink it with a small amount of plain water.
Recommendations
To get the best effect, according to the instructions, "Prostamol Uno" is best taken at the same time. To achieve a noticeable result, you must take the drug for at least 3 months.
Patients should not be alarmed by the duration of the drug. Such prolonged use of the drug does not damage either the kidneys or the liver, since this drug consists exclusively of plant components. As a rule, the recommended dosage of the drug ranges from 160-320 mg of the active substance per day. If the patient again has complaints, the doctor may advise continuing complex treatment with Prostamol Uno.
Side effects
As with any other medication, using this medication may cause unwanted side effects, about which each patient should be warned in advance. For example, the development of allergic reactions, which are manifested in the form of urticaria, Quincke's edema, rashes on the skin, severe itching, redness, is likely.
The digestive system may respond to the medication with nausea, abdominal pain, or lack of appetite. A man’s reproductive apparatus can also negatively react to taking medication, as a result of which gynecomastia will appear - an abnormal growth of the glandular tissue of the breast.
There is no evidence of overdose with Prostamol Uno. But if the patient during the period of taking the drug has blood in the urine or the pathological process of urine retention has begun, he should stop using the medicine and immediately consult a specialist.
Men who find themselves having problems with the prostate should immediately begin therapy to prevent the development of all kinds of complications, which usually relate primarily to the sexual sphere of life. In addition, in the absence of timely treatment, the occurrence of very unpleasant and even serious consequences in the form of secondary pathologies is quite likely.
If fluid stays constantly in the urinary system, an inflammatory process will appear that is most likely to affect the ureters and kidneys. In addition, stones form in stagnant urine. And those, in turn, require a completely different treatment, or rather surgical intervention.
Features
According to the recommendations of doctors and reviews of men, "Prostamol Uno" can not be used independently and used for monotherapy with prostatitis. After all, this drug only facilitates the overall clinical picture, but does not solve the problem itself and does not eliminate the causes of its occurrence. In order to actually completely get rid of prostatitis and its complications, it is necessary to undergo a course of complex treatment.
Before proceeding with therapy using Prostamol Uno, you should carefully read the attached insert. It should be remembered that the use of the drug can reduce the severity of the clinical picture with prostate adenoma.
As for drug interactions, Prostamol Uno can be combined with any other medicines. At the same time, the properties of the drug will not change: neither intensify nor weaken.
