Abstract

Pharmacotherapy of prostatic adenoma is based in present-day practice primarily on two basic groups of medicines - inhibitors of 5alpha-reductase and blockers of alpha1-adrenoreceptors. Our trial included 98 patients with prostatic adenoma aged 59-79 years given combined treatment with finasteride (inhibitor of 5alpha-reductase) made in Hungary (prosteride®, Gedeon Richter) and an uroselective blocker of alpha1-adrenoreceptors sonisin® (Gedeon Richter, Hungary). Prosteride® was given for 12 months, sonisine® - for the first 6 months of combined treatment. Positive results were achieved in 97(99%) of 98 patients. After 12-month combined treatment symptoms of the disease reduced by IPSS from 17.9 ± 1.8 to 3.9 ± 0.9 points, Qmax rose from 8.8 ± 0.3 to 14.6 ± 0.3, residual urine volume diminished from 91.7 ± 8.5 to 31.7 ± 4.4, the size of the prostate reduced from 72.4 ± 2.9 to 50.6 ± 3.7, quality of life improved 2-fold. Combined administration of finasteride (prosteride) and alpha1-adrenoblocker tamsulosine (sonisine) meet three principles of pharmacotherapy of prostatic adenoma: prevents progression of the disease and surgical treatment, relieves symptoms and improves quality of life.
