Analogs

The drug has a number of analogues, similar to Uroprofit in terms of the therapeutic effect on the genitourinary system. However, there are few such safe herbal remedies. These include Avisan, Urological (diuretic) herbal collection, Kanephron, Lobes and Cyston.

Among other medicines that can replace Uroprofit, the following medicines are most often prescribed for the treatment of cystitis:

• McMiror;
• Nolitsin;
• Ofloxacin;
• Furagin;
• Furadonin;

Firstly, plant raw materials need to be brewed and insisted, which is not always convenient, and secondly, from infusion a pungent and very specific odor spreads, which is essential for many patients minus. In addition, such a diuretic tea has a rather unpleasant taste and there are no vitamins in the herbal infusion that are in the finished product.

Previously, with an exacerbation of cystitis, I drank cranberry juice or brewed special anti-inflammatory preparations that are sold in pharmacies. Now I have switched to Uroprofit's reception and I am very sorry that I did not know about this remedy before. The preparation in the form of capsules contains an extract from cranberry, bearberry and other medicinal herbs, and it also contains vitamin C, which strengthens the immune system.

Capsules are very convenient form, they can be taken in time, you do not need to brew anything and drink tasteless, bitter decoctions. The drug very quickly relieves the unpleasant symptoms of cystitis, relieves inflammation and destroys the pathogenic microflora. Uroprofit can be taken for prophylaxis and then you can forget about cystitis forever.
