The results of study on evaluation of efficacy of combined treatment of patients with acute prostatitis are presented. The study included 34 patients with acute prostatitis aged 19 to 51 years. 13 patients in Group 1 received only basic therapy: fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, 500 mg 2 times daily for 14 days), non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (suppositories voltaren 50 mg at bedtime for 7 days). Along with basic treatments, 21 patients in the Group 2 received phytopreparation prostagutt forte (at a dose 280 mg 2 times a day), which has antiestrogenic, antiproliferative, antiinflammatory, immunomodulatory properties. It was shown that patients receiving prostagutt forte experienced pronounced and significant decrease of white blood count in the prostatic secretion, the decrease of prostate volume according to the data of transrectal ultrasound examination, more rapid relief of the inflammatory process, which was manifested by reduction of hyperthermia and reduction of severity of bladder outlet obstruction associated with swelling of the prostate.
