A comparative clinical randomized trial of cernilton® efficacy and safety in patients with chronic abacterial prostatitis

Abstract

The trial of efficacy and safety of two doses of the drug cernilton® in patients with chronic abacterial prostatitis made in the Research Institute of Urology and I.M. Sechenov Medical Academy in 2008 gave evidence for subjective (NIH-CPSI, Sex-4, IPSS and other scales, QOL) and objective (leucocyte count in prostatic secretion) pronounced anti-inflammatory effects of the drug which persist for at least 6 months. Comparison of the two doses of cernilton® showed significant differences in subjective response of the patients (NIH-CPSI and Symptom Frequency Scale). Cernilton® is recommended as a medication of choice for treatment of patients with chronic abacterial prostatitis.
