Abstract

An increase in the prevalence of crystalluria, dysmetabolic nephropathy, and urolithiasis in pediatric population requires the search for optimal methods for drug correction of mineral disorders, and prevention of urinary tract infections (UTI).
Purpose: to study the effectiveness and safety of the combined phyto-citrate complex in children with recurrent UTI against the background of saline dysmetabolism.
Materials and methods. A randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted, in which 53 children aged 6 to 18 years old were diagnosed with Cystitis, Pyelonephritis of 1st and 2nd stage of activity, in the active stage of the disease, and with history of UTI. 33 children of the main group received basic standard therapy reinforced with a combined phyto-citrate agent (Uriklar). 20 children in the control group received only standard basic therapy. Patients in both groups were comparable in age, gender and duration of the disease. The course of therapy with the combined phyto-citrate preparation in the main group and the phytouroseptic in the control group lasted for one month.
Results and conclusions. The advantages of adding a phyto-citrate complex to the basic therapy of UTIs were revealed at the end of a one-month cycle of use in the form of positive trends and normalization of mineral metabolism parameters in terms of transport of salt, other clinical and laboratory data, and ultrasonography. Absence of UTI relapse within 2 months after discontinuation of therapy indicates an effective anti-inflammatory and anti-adhesive action of the phyto-citrate complex.
