Reviews and analogues

Whether it is worth using Cyston or its analogue should be decided individually for each individual patient, taking into account the characteristics of his body, the nuances of the course of the disease and the financial situation of the patient.

The price range of such drugs is quite wide, from several hundred rubles to a thousand or more.

When purchasing, you should pay attention to the expiration date and compare it with the end of therapy. The drug should be stored exclusively in its original packaging, choosing a dry and dark place.

Reviews Dmitry. Cyston helps, but slowly. They found kidney stones in me a long time ago, I took them in courses - they slowly crushed and passed out, it was very painful. But at a recent ultrasound it turned out that everything was now clear, so the drug fulfilled its purpose. I have suffered from cystitis since I was a teenager, with frequent relapses.

Therefore, every fall I take a preventive course of Cyston to protect myself for the winter, then in the spring I take it again. The pills work, exacerbations now occur a little less frequently.

They are not enough for treatment, but for prevention they are an excellent option: they are completely natural, so you can drink them for long periods of time without fear of harming the body, and there are no side effects either.

It took a long time to take the drug, more than a year, but it was worth it.

Composition and pharmacological action

This drug was developed by Irish scientists, but its production is concentrated in Germany. Rowatinex belongs to the group of herbal medicines and has diuretic, antispasmodic and lipolytic effects.

It has a specific smell due to the complex of essential oils that are part of the drug. The main components are:

• oils of coniferous trees, from which pinene and camphene are obtained by synthesis;
• bay oil extract - borneol;

Among the additional components are gelatin, dye and quinoline, which are used in the process of making a soluble capsule for the drug.

Borneol belongs to the group of terpene compounds, improves the processes of dissolution of calcium stones, which predominate in urolithiasis.

In addition, Rowatinex has antispasmodic properties, significantly reduces pain when a stone passes through the urinary canal, and renal colic. Also, the effect of the drug is to improve blood flow in the kidneys and increase diuretic function.

The complex of components of this product has an anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effect (effective against many pathogenic microorganisms). Promotes the destruction of stones, increasing the amount of glucuronic acid and protective colloidal compounds in urine.

The drug is fat-soluble and is immediately absorbed when it enters the intestine. It is excreted mainly in the urine. Does not have the ability to accumulate in the body.

Flemoxin Solutab

Flemoxin Solutab instructions for use are positioned as the most effective and safe antibiotic with a wide spectrum of action. The active ingredient of the drug, amoxicillin, is especially often recommended by pediatricians for the treatment of children. What are the advantages of this medicine? To whom and why is the antibiotic Flemoxin Solutab prescribed? How to take tablets correctly if you have been prescribed Flemoxin Solutab 1000, 500, 250, 125?

Our readers successfully use Renon Duo to treat kidneys. Seeing how popular this product is, we decided to bring it to your attention. Read more here...

1. Children are prescribed tablets of 125 mg and 250 mg.
2. Adults – Flemoxin Solutab 500 mg or 100 mg.

Looking at the tablet, you can note the presence of an oblong strip on its surface, which runs exactly in the middle of the tablet. However, you cannot divide the tablet in half to change the dosage of Flemoxin Solutab. This is due to the fact that the active substance in the tablet is distributed unevenly, therefore, there may be more of it in one half and less in the other. Therefore, their therapeutic effect and side effects will differ.

Benefits of the drug

Flemoxin Solutab for children and adults is available in the form of tablets that dissolve in the mouth.

This is related to their effectiveness and advantages over Flemoxin analogues:

1. The drug has significant bioavailability. Due to the fact that it dissolves directly in the mouth, its absorption into the blood begins much earlier than with other forms of medication. Also, the components do not enter the stomach and cannot lead to irritation of its walls.
2. The maximum concentration of the active substance is achieved faster. Within 5 minutes, they will enter the bloodstream. While oral tablets will be there no earlier than 15-20 minutes.
3. The use of Flemoxin Solutab 125 mg or 250 mg is much more convenient than the similar drug Amoxicillin in the form of a suspension.
4. Children's Flemoxin Solutab in a dosage of 125 mg is suitable for use in the treatment of newborn babies.
5. Despite what Flemoxin was prescribed for, it does not require special preparation before use, which cannot be said about suspensions.
6. For infants, the tablet can be dissolved in breast milk.
7. To dissolve the medication you do not need a large amount of water.
8. The medicine has a pleasant citrus taste, so even a small child can take it without problems.

It is very important that the medicine is stored correctly. The fact is that the tablets are extremely sensitive to moisture, so they must be stored in hermetically sealed packaging in a dry place. If a tablet is accidentally removed from the compartment, it must either be taken or thrown away.

Indications for use

For the drug Flemoxin Solutab 1000 or other dosages, the indications for use are related to the pharmacological properties of the drug. Amoxicillin has been successfully used to treat a number of infectious diseases.

The drug is prescribed for uncomplicated forms:

1. Otitis. If the patient's temperature rises to 39 degrees or more and acute ear pain occurs, the doctor will most likely prescribe the use of another medication.
2. Diseases of the lower respiratory tract caused by hemophilia, staphylococci or strepococci.
3. Skin infections caused by the development of Escherichia coli, streptococcus, and other pathogenic bacteria.
4. Diseases of the urinary system (bladder, kidneys), the development of which was caused by E. coli, enterococci, Proteus.
5. Salmonellosis.
6. Typhoid fever.
7. Lyme disease.

Instructions for use of Flemoxin Solutab indicate its use as part of complex therapy in the treatment of gastric ulcers.

The drug is used in the treatment of certain sexually transmitted diseases (chlamydia and gonorrhea). In this case, the dose of the drug is determined individually for each patient, depending on the state of his body and the characteristics of the pathology.

How to use

Considering what Flemoxin Solutab helps with and how it acts on the causative agent of the disease, the doctor will calculate the dosage for each patient individually. In this case, the doctor will assess the general condition of the patient, the severity of the disease and take into account concomitant pathologies.

The instructions for Flemoxin Solutab suggest the following doses of the drug:

• children aged one to three years are prescribed 250 mg tablets, which must be taken twice a day;
• instructions for use for children indicate that the maximum dose of the drug per day should not exceed 60 mg per kg of baby’s weight;
• for children aged three to ten years, the doctor will prescribe 375 mg twice a day or 250 mg three times a day;
• for children over ten years of age and adults, Flemoxin Solutab is prescribed in a dosage of 500-750 mg when taken twice a day or 375-500 mg when taken twice;
• for complex pathologies, the dose of the drug can be increased to three g per day, which must be divided into 3 doses in equal parts.

The doctor also determines how long to use the medicine. The duration and route of administration may vary from patient to patient. But it is worth noting that the minimum time to take the medication is at least five days. Basically, doctors recommend taking antibacterial medications for seven days. If the cause of the disease is streptococcus, the course of treatment can be extended to ten days or more.

Doctors recommend continuing to take Flemoxin Solutaba for several more days after the symptoms of the disease disappear. But the total time of admission should not be less than five days.

For those who are faced with the need to use Flemoxin Solutab 1000 mg or another dosage of a dispersible agent, it may not be clear how to take it correctly.

Regardless of the indication for use of Flemoxin Solutab, this can be done in several ways:

• chew;
• dissolve or hold in the mouth until the tablet is completely dissolved;
• dissolve the tablet in a tablespoon of water;
• For infants, the medication can be dissolved in breast milk or formula;
• when used to treat a child, it is allowed to dissolve the tablet in any drink at room temperature (juice, tea, etc.).

There is no difference in how Flemoxin Solutab is taken. The bioavailability and rate of entry of the active components into the blood does not depend on whether the tablet was chewed or mixed with liquid. It also doesn’t matter how much liquid is used.

When to take the tablet - before meals or after meals? There is no fundamental difference in this and food can be taken both before and after taking the pill.

Contraindications

When starting to use any drug, including Flemoxin Solutab, you need to remember that each of them has its own indications and contraindications. Doctors note that Flemoxin is one of the safest medicines.

The list of contraindications is small:

1. Individual intolerance or hypersensitivity of the patient to individual components of the drug, which belongs to the penicillin series. At the same time, the risk of allergic reactions is insignificant. But if the patient has previously had an allergy to any medicine, then it is worth telling the attending physician about this before starting to take the medication. Having assessed the possible risk, the doctor will be able to select the appropriate drug and calculate its dosage.
2. Infectious mononucleosis. If you take Flemoxin for mononucleosis, an erythematous rash may appear.

Due to the safety of the medicine, the doctor may prescribe the use of Flemoxin Solutab during pregnancy. At the same time, the fact must be taken into account that the prescription of any medication for a woman during this period is possible only when the expected benefit from it is higher than the risk that the medicine may have on the condition and development of the fetus.

Side effects

Reviews from patients prove that Flemoxin Solutab is well tolerated by the body. But in some cases, there were still negative effects that occurred while taking the medicine or after finishing it.

Sometimes the following reactions were observed:

1. 2% developed a vulvovaginal fungal infection. To prevent this, the doctor may recommend combining the use of the medication with an antimycotic agent (Fluconazole, etc.).
2. Diarrhea occurred in 1.5% of cases. This symptom often occurs during antibacterial therapy and does not require discontinuation of the drug.
3. Nausea occurred in 1.3% of patients treated with this drug.
4. In 1% of known cases of side effects, patients complained of headaches.
5. In 0.7% of patients, vomiting occurred.
6. In 0.3% of patients, regular or recurrent abdominal pain appeared while taking the pills.
7. Very rarely, urination problems occur.
8. It is extremely rare that patients who were prescribed treatment with this medication developed pseudomembranous colitis. Doctors attribute this to a sharp change in the composition of the intestinal microflora and the active development of pathogenic microorganisms. This pathology is manifested by severe diarrhea, which can lead to dehydration of the human body.

If any unpleasant symptom appears during treatment with Flemoxin, the patient should immediately contact the attending physician, who will be able to select an analogue of Flemoxin to which the bacteria that caused the underlying disease will be sensitive. If the patient is experiencing nausea and especially diarrhea, it is important to prevent dehydration. Therefore, the doctor will recommend a way to restore the body’s water-salt balance.

If the drug is taken in the doses determined by the attending physician, then an overdose is unlikely. Very rarely, patients who exceeded the dose of the drug experienced dizziness, nausea and vomiting, or the development of diarrhea. In such cases, it is necessary to stop using the medicine, rinse the stomach and take any sorbent drugs. If signs of dehydration appear due to diarrhea, the doctor will prescribe available methods to restore the water-salt balance.

Compatibility and interaction with other drugs

When prescribing a medication, the doctor will ask the patient what medications he is taking to treat other diseases.

This is due to the fact that some of them can inhibit the secretion of penicillins, so the concentration of amoxicillin in the blood increases, for example:

• oxyphenbutazone;
• probenecid;
• sulfinpyrazone;
• acetylsalicylic acid.

The time it takes to be eliminated from the body also increases.

Simultaneous use with bacteriostatic agents (sulfonamides, chloramphenicol, etc.) causes antagonism and synergistic action.

In case of simultaneous use with estrogen-based oral contraceptives, bleeding may develop and their effectiveness may decrease.

Interaction with alcohol

While using any antibacterial agents, drinking alcohol is prohibited. Alcoholic drinks can have a negative effect even on a healthy body, and when it has to fight an infection, alcohol makes this task almost impossible, so the risk of complications increases significantly.

If Flemoxin Solutab and alcohol are taken simultaneously, metabolic processes in liver cells are disrupted and the toxic effect on the nervous system increases. As a result of combining Flemoxin and alcohol, the incidence of encephalopathy increases. It is also possible to modify the infection, as a result of which it spreads throughout the body and becomes much more difficult to get rid of.

When an antibiotic is consumed together with alcohol, the antimicrobial effect of the drug is significantly reduced or completely inhibited. Therefore, therapy becomes meaningless. Often the patient develops toxic damage to liver cells.

Other complications are also possible:

1. Indigestion. The patient complains of constant nausea and vomiting. Because of this, a person cannot even drink water. Severe diarrhea may occur that does not go away after taking medication, causing severe dehydration.
2. Circulatory disorders. When combining the drug with alcohol, the risk of bleeding and sudden thrombocytopenia increases, when the number of platelets in the blood sharply decreases. Often the patient begins to experience nasal bleeding, and sometimes even gastric bleeding. Thus, the patient experiences serious disruptions in the functioning of the cardiovascular system, which can even lead to death.
3. Alcohol always has a negative effect on the liver. And when taken simultaneously with the medication, cholestatic jaundice may appear. As a result of the pathology, bile does not enter the intestines, urine becomes dark in color, and feces become discolored. The skin begins to itch.
4. The instructions for the drug indicate that Flemoxin Solutab can provoke irritability and aggression in the patient. If you combine this effect with drinking alcohol, the result may be unpredictable. A person may experience sleep disturbances, depression, epileptic seizures, delirium and psychosis.
5. Flemoxin Solutab together with ethyl alcohol can cause inflammation in the genitourinary system or cause the formation of malignant tumors, which are manifested by symptoms of general intoxication of the body, weakness and other manifestations.

How to replace Rowatinex: pros and cons of analogues

Rowatinex is a herbal remedy that has antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory and mild antimicrobial effects.
In addition, it improves renal blood flow, is a diuretic and helps slow the growth of new ones and dissolve existing stones in the kidneys or urinary tract. Belongs to the group of herbal preparations.

The main reason for its prescription is the presence of stones in the kidneys and urinary tract, as well as the accompanying renal colic or the need for the prevention of these conditions.

Composition and release form

Rowatinex is available in the form of round capsules, each of which contains the following active substances:

• pinene – 31 mg;
• camphene – 15 mg;
• borneol (has an antispasmodic effect) – 10 mg;
• fenchone (antiseptic) – 4 mg;
• cineole (antiseptic) – 3 mg.
• anethole – 4 mg.

Thus, the active components of the composition are represented by terpenes, terpenoids and terpene alcohols isolated from essential oils.

The base medium (additional component) for dissolving and better absorption of these compounds is olive oil.

The shell consists of gelatin and a number of auxiliary ingredients.

Blisters containing 10 capsules are packaged in cardboard boxes of 5 or 10 blisters each. The drug in the form of drops is not supplied to Russia.

Pharmacotherapeutic action

The active substances of the capsules contribute to:

• separation and removal of stones and sand;
• the entry of glucorunic acid into urine, which does not lead to a change in the acidity of urine. It increases the solubility of stones based on calcium salts (oxalates and phosphates), without provoking the growth of urate deposits;
• increasing the content of protective colloids in the urine that prevent the growth of new stones;
• improving kidney function;
• reducing pain due to colic by facilitating the process of removing sand and stones;
• eliminating spasms of the urinary tract;
• reducing the level of pathogenic flora, representatives of which can cause an inflammatory process and/or act as an organic basis for the calculus.

Mechanism of action on the body

The contents of the capsules are inserted in the intestines, and not in the stomach. This allows you to protect the active substances of the drug from the aggressive effects of digestive juice, as well as the gastric mucosa from the irritating effects of terpenes.

The main components are absorbed quickly due to fat solubility, then they are metabolized in the liver, partially converted into glucorunic acid. Decay products are excreted in urine, providing a therapeutic effect in the urinary tract, including increasing the solubility of calcium salts that form stones.

Indications for use

Rowatinex is usually prescribed for nephro- or urolithiasis, or to prevent the formation of stones. In addition, it is used in the following situations:

Reviews from doctors and patients

Medical experts note a number of features associated with taking Rovatinex analogues:

“Blemaren demonstrates the optimal price-quality ratio and is a little harsher than Rowatinex. Helps deal with urate and oxalate stones, as well as sand. During treatment, it is necessary to monitor urine pH using the indicator included with the tablets.

Advantages:

• in comparison with Rowatinex - not so high cost;
• effective for large stones (Rovatinex is more suitable for small and loose stones).

Flaws:

• pH control is necessary plus, sometimes, an alkalizing diet;
• irritates the gastrointestinal tract, undesirable in case of blockage of the ureters or severe inflammation.

Ozhogin V.A.

“I don’t often prescribe Phytolysin, like Canephron, for the treatment of urolithiasis - the effectiveness compared to Rowatinex or Blemaren is low. No prescription required. Phytolysin has a specific taste; the components of the composition can cause allergies.

Advantages:

• Canephron and Fitolysin Prenatal can be taken during pregnancy;
• ideal for prophylaxis during long-term use.

Flaws:

• the specific taste complicates the process of Phytolysin therapy;
• the therapeutic effect of Canephron can appear only after a long, and therefore expensive (comparable to Rovatinex, for example) course;
• for urolithiasis, both drugs can only be used as part of complex therapy.”

Aivazov O.Yu.

“Urolesan is similar to Rowatinex in the presence of essential oils. Unlike the latter, it noticeably acidifies urine and has a more aggressive effect on the stomach.

Advantages:

• minimum side effects;
• in terms of speed of results, it is slightly inferior to Rowatinex;
• more acceptable price-quality ratio;
• effective for stones in the kidneys and bile ducts.

Flaws:

• some forms of release have an unpleasant taste;
• Do not take with stones larger than 3 mm.
• requires caution in the presence of peptic ulcer or gastritis"

Zernitsyna O.E.

And now about what impressions the patients who took them had about the analogues:

“Saw Rovatinex to remove small stones - 3-4 mm each and eliminate secondary inflammation. Before that, I was prescribed Blemaren, but there were problems with taking it - the dose either caused heartburn or had no effect on the pH of the urine, and, accordingly, on the stones. According to the results of the ultrasound and the condition, the drug works, but due to the cost it is necessary to replace it with Cyston.

Advantages:

• Rowatinex does not irritate the gastrointestinal tract;
• relieves pain faster compared to Cyston.

flaws:

• symptoms go away quickly, but complete dissolution requires a long course or courses with a break;
• price"

Elena, 34 years old

“The doctor recommended taking Canephron together with Rowatinex; Canephron alone is unlikely to remove stones. And this despite the fact that the purpose of the procedure was to remove fragments of stones crushed after lithotripsy. The “fragments” came out without severe pain. And I continued to take Canephron during pregnancy, for prevention.

Advantages:

• safe during pregnancy;
• optimal for recovery after stone passage or in combination with more “narrowly targeted” drugs"
• I didn’t notice any side effects;
• mild diuretic effect.

Disadvantages: Canephron is not cheap for long-term use"

Anastasia, 28 years old

“To remove stones, I was prescribed Rovatinex plus Canephron, but I could not purchase more than one package of the first for financial reasons, so I decided to buy Madder extract tablets. They are difficult to drink, they cope with pain worse, but there is an effect.

Advantages:

• very affordable price;
• “slow” but lasting results.

Flaws:

• you need to drink through a straw;
• does not provide a quick analgesic effect;
• Do not drink if you have a stomach ulcer;
• gives urine a reddish tint"

Yulia, 47 years old

Tips for taking Rovatinex analogues from patients:

1. Canephron N and Phytolysin are more suitable for complex therapy; on their own they are unlikely to cope even with stones that do not have an acoustic shadow (soft ones). They can also be used after treatment with the main drug.
2. Blemaren and madder extract must be drunk through a straw - otherwise destruction of tooth enamel cannot be avoided.
3. In case of increased acidity and a tendency to gastritis, Blemaren with caution strictly after meals.
4. Cyston gives results for a long time. If immediate pain relief is required, it may not be effective;
5. Prolit and Fitolit are effective if necessary to remove sand. In the treatment of formed stones, the result may depend on the type and size of the stones.

Reviews regarding medications for litholysis are very mixed. One conclusion can be drawn: the best treatment is prevention in the form of diet, routine examinations and, possibly, taking herbal remedies.

Pharmacological properties

Rowatinex (analogs and substitutes for this drug can be purchased in retail pharmacy chains) is a combination drug with a complex biochemical composition that has the following pharmacological properties:

• has a diuretic effect, stimulating the kidneys to be more active in removing fluid;
• suppresses the intensity of pain in patients who suffer from renal colic during the acute phase of the passage of stones;
• promotes the dissolution of stones that are localized in the kidneys and bladder (the best therapeutic effect of Rovatinex capsules is manifested in relation to calcium-type stones);
• prevents the accumulation of mineral salts in the organs of the urinary tract, on the basis of which stones form;
• improves local blood circulation in the kidney tissues, and also increases their functional activity;
• acts as an effective and safe antispasmodic, expanding the urinary canals as stones pass through them;
• has a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect, which helps prevent the occurrence of pathological conditions of the kidneys that have been damaged by bulky stones;
• increases the concentration of glucuronic acid in urine;
• exhibits antibacterial activity against most gram-negative and gram-positive microorganisms;
• increases the mass fraction of protective colloids that are present in urine, protecting the tissues of the kidneys and other organs of the excretory system from the negative influence of external and internal factors.

The positive pharmacological properties of this drug appear in the first days from the start of the course of treatment. Rowatinex is a medication that is designed to be taken regularly over a long period of time.

The drug is ineffective as a means of symptomatic therapy. The implementation of the pharmacological properties of Rowatinex capsules is enhanced if they are taken simultaneously with other antispasmodic and diuretic medications.

Pharmacotherapeutic action

The active substances of the capsules contribute to:

• separation and removal of stones and sand;
• the entry of glucorunic acid into urine, which does not lead to a change in the acidity of urine. It increases the solubility of stones based on calcium salts (oxalates and phosphates), without provoking the growth of urate deposits;
• increasing the content of protective colloids in the urine that prevent the growth of new stones;
• improving kidney function;
• reducing pain due to colic by facilitating the process of removing sand and stones;
• eliminating spasms of the urinary tract;
• reducing the level of pathogenic flora, representatives of which can cause an inflammatory process and/or act as an organic basis for the calculus.

Rowatinex or Renotinex – which is better?

Manufacturer: Polaris, Russia
Release form: capsules

Active ingredient: pinene (a+b), camphene, cineole, fenchone, borneol, anethole, vitamin E

Synonyms: Rowatinex

Renotinex is an analogue of Rowatinex in composition. Produced in Russia, the package contains 10 blisters, 100 capsules.

Thanks to the complex of terpenes in the composition, it has the following pharmacological effects:

• antiseptic;
• antibacterial;
• anti-inflammatory;
• antioxidant;
• diuretic;
• antispasmodic;
• improves tissue circulation of the urinary organs.

Take 1-2 capsules. per day before meals for 1 month

It is important to consult your doctor before starting therapy. It is possible to repeat the course of treatment up to 4 times a year

Unlike the main drug, the Russian analogue of Rowatinex belongs to dietary supplements. Accordingly, the drug is more accessible and costs half as much.

Which medicine to choose depends on personal preferences and attitude towards dietary supplements.

Medicines for kidney stones

Contraindicated during pregnancy and childhood. Furosemide, unlike Cyston, is a completely chemical medicine.

It works as a strong diuretic, removing excess moisture from the body and thereby relieving swelling of the organs, but has no effect on stones and other formations in the kidneys. It has a low price, but has unpleasant side effects, including effects on the nervous, digestive and cardiovascular systems, vision and hearing, which is why it is contraindicated for people with many diseases of these organs.

It may be poorly compatible with other drugs. Rowatinex is a herbal medicine that, in its pharmacological properties, is almost entirely similar to Cyston. It has no side effects and has a small list of contraindications, including only allergic reactions, acute pain, childhood, lactation and early pregnancy.

The duration of treatment is only 1-2 months, which is much less than Cyston, but Rowatinex is distinguished by its high price - from 1,300 rubles and above.

Canephron is a herbal medicine, almost similar in therapeutic effects to Cyston.

Canephron is better suited for allergy sufferers, as it contains much fewer potentially allergenic components, while Cyston has a more pronounced antibacterial effect and better relieves inflammation.

Pharmacological action of Rowatinex

In accordance with the instructions for Rovatinex, the active ingredients of the drug are cineol, fenchone, alpha and beta pinene, camphene, borneol, anethole. Excipients of the capsules are quinoline, sodium propyl parahydroxybenzoate, sodium ethyl parahydroxybenzoate, glycerol, olive oil.

Rowatinex is a herbal medicine that promotes the breakdown and removal of stones from the kidneys and urinary tract.

Borneols and terpenes are completely changed in the human body, after which they are excreted in the form of glucuronides through the kidneys. As a result, the solubility of calcium salts, which are the main components of kidney and urinary tract stones, increases. In experimental conditions, it was found that Rowatinex also prevents the formation of stones.

The medicine has an antispasmodic effect, stimulates the passage of stones through the urinary tract, reduces the intensity of pain during ureteral and renal colic, normalizes renal blood flow, thereby improving kidney function and increasing diuresis.

Rowatinex has a pronounced anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial (against many gram-negative and gram-positive microorganisms) effect, increases the content of colloids and glucuronic acid in the urine.

Rowatinex contains fat-soluble terpenes that are quickly absorbed when ingested.

What's better

For the treatment of gout, urinary incontinence and inflammation of the prostate, doctors usually prescribe Cyston, since it copes well with these problems. Whereas Rowatinex fights better and more effectively against stones in the kidneys and urinary tract.

Due to the not too long course of treatment, both drugs are prescribed by specialists with the same frequency, since they are both aimed at treating and eliminating unpleasant symptoms that have arisen against the background of pathology.

If a person has the opportunity to buy a more expensive product, then you can pay attention to Rowatinex, although it has more side effects. Cyston is cheaper, but patients do not report any side effects. It is also available for use by children from two years of age, while Rowatinex is prohibited in children under 6 years of age.

Medicine and healthComment

Patients' opinions

Many people who used Rowatinex were satisfied with the result, but negative reviews are associated with an incorrect or incomplete course of treatment. Below are some opinions from the Internet:

Today, herbal preparations are increasingly used to treat mineral stone deposits. These include Rowatinex. It is absolutely safe and, when taken correctly, does not cause overdose or side symptoms.

Efficiency is achieved with long-term use. The doctor selects the course and dosage individually for each patient. Self-medication can cause serious complications.

ROVATINEX: reviews

Reviews

Since Rowatinex recently appeared on the pharmaceutical market in Russia and Ukraine, there are not too many reviews about it. Many people believe that it is better to use old and proven herbal medicines Canephron or Cyston than the new and not yet “tested” Rovatinex. However, a small number of reviews about the drug among Russian and Ukrainian patients are positive. People note that Rowatinex helped remove kidney stones. Also, patients separately note the excellent effect of the drug in removing sand and small particles of stones from the kidneys remaining after the crushing procedure.

A larger number of reviews about Rovatinex can be found on various foreign forums and websites, where they are left by compatriots who left the countries of the former USSR. According to people who took Rowatinex, the drug perfectly removes all small particles of stones remaining in the kidneys after crushing or simply passing them. Many note that preventive courses of taking the drug helped prevent the formation of horned stones, in the presence of which the kidney has to be removed. There are also many positive reviews from older people about Rowatinex as a drug that stopped the growth of stones and made further conservative treatment of the disease possible (without surgery).

There are also a small number of negative reviews about Rowatinex, which are due to the ineffectiveness of the drug and the great hopes placed on it. That is, the drug did not lead to the removal of kidney stones, and the person had to undergo the procedure of crushing or surgical removal of the formations. In this case, the need for more serious intervention entailed a strong emotional perception of Rowatinex, who could not prevent it. That is why in such situations people leave negative reviews about the drug.

Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

Rowatinex (analogues and substitutes of this drug are sold in the form of tablets, capsules, and liquid drops for oral administration) has complex pharmacodynamics. Active substances of plant origin contained in this medication promote rapid disintegration with further removal of stones from the kidneys and urinary tract.

Borneol, which belongs to the pharmacological group of terpenes, is converted during metabolism to the state of glucuronide, increases the degree of solubility of calcium salts, as well as already formed stones. The main components of this drug saturate the tissues of the kidneys and organs of the excretory system, providing an antispasmodic effect.

Stones that are localized inside the kidneys and bladder are more quickly and freely excreted along with urine. The pharmacodynamic property of Rowatinex in the form of suppression of pain and expansion of the lumen of the urinary tract makes it possible to achieve the effect of painless disposal of salt stones with minimal risk of injury to the urinary tract.

The herbal components of Rowatinex capsules simultaneously eliminate signs of the inflammatory process and have a pronounced antimicrobial effect. This pharmacodynamic feature of the drug helps prevent the development of complications and negative consequences caused by urolithiasis.

The pharmacokinetics of the drug Rovatinex is characterized by the biochemical properties of terpenes, which form the basis of its pharmacological formula. These components are highly soluble in vegetable fats.

After the drug capsule enters the stomach cavity, it then enters the intestines, where its protective gelatin shell dissolves. The oily liquid with the active substances of the drug is quickly absorbed into the walls of the gastrointestinal tract, and then, together with the flow of the bloodstream, enters the kidney tissue and organs of the urinary tract.

At this stage, the antispasmodic, diuretic and litholic properties of the drug are realized. The active substances of the drug in the form of terpenes are metabolized in the liver tissues. As a result of this physiological process, biologically active substances glucuronides are formed, which are excreted from the patient’s body in urine.

These components have pronounced antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, protect the kidneys and other organs of the excretory system from the negative influence of pathogenic microorganisms, and accelerate the process of regeneration of tissues damaged as a result of the removal of fragments of dissolved stones.

Reviews

Mikhail, 44 years old, Penza: “The antibiotic caused side effects after the second use. Perhaps they did not calculate the correct dose and did not take chronic diseases into account, but the drug had to be replaced with an analogue. Although the original started to help.”

Tatyana, 52 years old, Voronezh: “Doctors prescribed a drip with medicine to treat a kidney infection. The organ literally failed. There was severe pain with the slightest movement. They put him in the hospital. Dripped for 7 days. The arm is swollen, the vein is swollen, but I don’t know if it’s because of the medicine, or if the nurses don’t know how to insert needles. There were no severe side effects, only slight weakness immediately after the first drops. But it went away when the procedure time ended. The drug helped fight the infection.”

Kristina, 23 years old, Ulyanovsk: “We gave injections with the drug for sinusitis. An antibiotic is an antibiotic, you don’t really notice the effect. You can feel the results after local procedures. But the injections were painful. After putting it on, the leg was slightly removed. There were no other negative reactions, the drug was well tolerated.”

Igor, 39 years old, Saratov: “I administered the antibiotic myself at home. I bought it with a prescription, but refused hospitalization. There were no difficulties. Diluted according to instructions. There was a slight tingling sensation when the contents of the syringe were injected. There were no side effects noted after the procedure. After 10 days, the course of treatment ended and the infection subsided. Didn't use any medications anymore. I gave injections twice: in the morning and before bedtime.”

Price

The average cost of the herbal medicine Rovatinex is 1,250 rubles. per pack of 50 capsules.

Rowatinex is an effective drug that is used for course therapy of patients with urolithiasis. This drug is equally effective against stones located inside the kidneys and urinary canal. The constituent components of this medication are biochemical substances of plant origin that belong to the category of terpenes.

Rowatinex capsules have pronounced antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic and diuretic properties. The medication is allowed for children aged 6 years and older. Analogs and substitutes for Rowatinex are available in the form of capsules and tablets.

Price for medicine

Today, “Rovatinex” collects reviews from doctors across the country in small quantities, since it went on sale relatively recently. Many patients still try to buy domestically produced drugs that have been used for a long time for their own treatment and do not want to experiment on their own health.

Such doubts are also reinforced by the cost of the medicine. Across the country, it ranges from 800-1100 rubles. Today there are only packages of 50 capsules on sale, so this medicine is enough for a maximum of half a course for an adult. This amount will also not be enough to treat a child, and the drug will have to be purchased in addition.

You can save money when prescribing this medication only by purchasing it online, on official websites selling medicines, since their markup is minimal. Sites do not need to pay for rent of premises and salaries for a large number of employees.

The instructions and reviews from doctors do not recommend taking the drug “Rovatinex” simultaneously with antibiotics or anticoagulants. The fact is that the medication significantly changes their effectiveness. The same applies to any other medications that are destroyed in the liver, often antidepressants and so on.

Overdose

In medical practice, there have been no cases of overdose of Rowatinex capsules. A patient who has violated the established dosage rules for this medication and has taken a large amount of the drug once, then he may develop symptoms of general intoxication of the body, namely:

• Strong headache;
• nausea;
• vomiting;
• loss of appetite;
• cramping pain in the stomach and intestines;
• discomfort in the right hypochondrium, indicating possible inflammation of the liver tissue;
• diarrhea;
• general physical weakness;
• dizziness and loss of coordination of movements;
• decreased blood pressure;
• rapid heartbeat, as well as other signs of arrhythmia;
• various kinds of allergic reactions in the form of itching of the skin, urticaria, red rash, swelling of the mucous membranes;
• a feeling of lack of air and shortness of breath caused by bronchial spasm, which indicates individual intolerance to the constituent components of the drug.

Patients with signs of overdose with Rowatinex capsules should be hospitalized in an inpatient toxicology department. Patients with the above symptoms receive symptomatic therapy in the form of gastrointestinal lavage and restoration of water-salt balance.

If an allergic reaction is diagnosed, a course of antihistamines is prescribed

Particular attention is paid to the level of functional activity of the kidneys, liver, organs of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems

Side effects and overdose

It is not advisable to take Rowatinex together with drugs that are destroyed in the liver structures. The drug also demonstrates a significant change in relation to drugs that reduce blood coagulation in thrombosis and thrombophlebitis.

The instructions for use of the herbal medicine Rovatinex warn about the possibility of overdose if an excessively high dose of the active substance is taken at the same time. If such cases are detected, if little time has passed since the drug entered the stomach, lavage is recommended, as well as other possible emergency response measures.

“Rovatinex” (instructions for use and reviews will be presented in the article) is described as a very effective drug against urolithiasis.

Its therapeutic effects are as follows:

• components help crush kidney stones;
• stimulate their excretion from the kidneys;
• reduce pain symptoms;
• increase urination.

The main effect of the drug is its ability to destroy kidney stones. Their accelerated excretion is due to increased urination, and the reduction in pain is due to the removal of spasms from the ureters.

The litholytic effect is due to certain chemical transformations of the drug components in the human body. The glucuronides formed in this process contribute to the dissolution of calcium salts, which are the main components of kidney stones. Thanks to these same substances, the medication is able to stop the growth of existing stones and the formation of new ones. It is often used to prevent the occurrence of urolithiasis in patients with such a predisposition.

The drug relieves pain not only during the passage of stones through the ureters, but also during colic. Increased urination occurs due to increased blood circulation. This also helps to improve their functioning.

In addition to all of the above, the plant components of the composition have an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effect.

In practice, “Rovatinex” has only positive reviews. The drug causes side effects in very rare cases, and most patients tolerate it perfectly. Some people note only a slight heaviness in the stomach immediately after taking it, but this discomfort goes away on its own in a short time.

If the patient, for a certain reason, has taken too much of the drug, then it is necessary to immediately perform gastric lavage. If this happened a long time ago and the substances have managed to be absorbed into the blood, then rinsing will not help. The patient must be taken to the hospital under medical supervision and treated symptomatically.

Since the drug Cyston is created exclusively on the basis of harmless plant components, contraindications to it are minimal.

These only include individual intolerance to any component of the drug, so before taking it you should carefully study its composition and, if necessary, replace Cyston with an analogue. The drug has no side effects, except for possible allergic reactions.

Cyston is not recommended for the treatment of large (more than 9 mm) stones, since when they move, they can cause blockage of the urethra. The drug should also not be taken if the patient has acute pain of unknown origin in the urinary tract or kidneys.

Course of therapy and dosage

Capsules should be taken before meals without chewing, with plenty of liquid. An important point during treatment is maintaining the correct drinking regime: since Rovatinex has a strong diuretic property, to prevent dehydration, the amount of fluid drunk per day should be at least 3 liters.

The dosage and duration of administration depends on the patient’s age and the severity of his disease:

1. For urolithiasis, 1-2 capsules are prescribed three times a day, the course is 1 month.
2. To treat renal colic, take 2-3 tablets 4 to 5 times a day (depending on the intensity of the attack). This dosage is taken until acute symptoms are relieved, then it is reduced to 2 capsules three times a day. The average course of therapy is 30 days.
3. For the treatment of small mineral deposits, sand or crystalluria, the daily dose is no more than 3 capsules, divided into 3 doses.
4. After surgery, which was accompanied by grinding of stones, the patient is prescribed 2 capsules three times a day. Duration - at least 1 month.

If necessary, treatment with the drug can be repeated, provided that the break between courses is 60 days.

For children

For the treatment of children from 6 to 14 years of age, the daily dosage is 2 capsules, divided into 2 equal doses (time interval of at least 8-12 hours).

During pregnancy and lactation

Rovatinex should be prescribed with caution to pregnant women in the 2nd and 3rd trimester. Treatment is carried out under the strict supervision of a doctor, the dosage depends on the severity of the disease

During lactation, this drug is contraindicated due to the lack of clinical studies on the possible penetration of components into breast milk.

If the doctor, for certain indications, nevertheless prescribed Rowatinex to a nursing mother, it is recommended to stop lactation for a while.

During therapy, it is necessary to carefully monitor the function of urine excretion; if its daily amount is less than 50 ml, then the drug is discontinued and urgently consult a doctor.

Instructions for use

Before using any medicine, it is necessary to study in detail the instructions for use of the drug, the principle of its action, composition and dosage. It is important to know that Ornilatex is not used without a doctor's prescription.

pharmachologic effect

Ornilatex is a hypoazotemic or hypoammonemic drug that reduces high levels of ammonia in the blood plasma. Its main action is its participation in the ornithine cycle in the formation of urea from ammonia. Ornithine is considered the main substance that helps synthesize urea.

And Ornilatex effectively activates the process of urea formation, which, in turn, reduces the level of ammonia in the body. In addition, the medicine promotes the production of growth hormone and insulin, and also accelerates protein metabolism.

In the body, the product breaks down into two main components: ornithine and aspartate. Moreover, its half-life is very short (30-40 minutes), and the drug is excreted from the body along with urine, through the kidneys.

Indications for use

Ornilatex is prescribed for severe liver damage, both acute and chronic, which is accompanied by hyperammonymia. The drug gives excellent results in the treatment of liver failure, encephalopathy, and hepatic coma. Often, it is used as an additive to parenteral nutrition for patients suffering from protein deficiency.

Mode of application

Ornilatex is used exclusively intravenously (stream or drip). To do this, only 20 g of the drug is diluted in 500 ml of infusion solution, which can be used as a 0.9% sodium chloride solution or a 5% glucose solution.

Adult patients are usually prescribed a standard dosage of 20 g/day, divided into two times. For 500 ml of solution for droppers, it is recommended to use no more than 30 g of the drug, and the rate of administration should not exceed 5 g/h.

In case of severe hepatic encephalopathy, the patient receives the maximum possible daily dose of the drug – 40 g/day. In case of severe liver damage, the administration of the drug requires increased caution and constant medical supervision.

At the same time, it is important to promptly adjust the rate at which the solution enters the vein in order to avoid complications and adverse reactions. The duration of treatment is determined by the doctor individually in each case, and it depends on the patient’s age and the severity of the disease.
