排尿障害に対するロバベロン錠(KN-7)の長期間投与について

Abstract

Sixteen patients with benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH, 5 cases) and neurogenic bladder (NB, 11 cases) were treated with Robaveron tablets (KN-7) containing an extract of swine prostate gland 20 mg/T. at the dose of 2 tablets t.i.d. for a long term of 6-33 months. Evaluation of drug efficacy and safety were based on decrease of residual urine, improvement of subjective symptoms, complaints of side effects and clinical laboratory tests recorded every three months. Significant decrease of residual urine rate and good improvement of various subjective symptoms such as difficulty in urination, pollakisuria, urinary incontinence, etc. were obtained and maintained. The overall effectiveness, rated as slightly improved or better on the final evaluation of these cases was 68.8%. No cases of side effects or abnormal changes in the laboratory tests directly due to the test drug were observed. Robaveron tablet is both safe and effective for the long-term therapy of urinary disturbance.
