What is Adenoprosin?
Adenoprosin is a rectal suppository medication containing 150 mg of an active complex derived from insect larvae (Lymantria dispar), which exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
The biologically active components of the medication help reduce inflammation and improve the symptoms of prostate conditions.
Adenoprosin is primarily used to treat chronic prostatitis and may be a part of combined therapy for this condition.
How does Adenoprosin work?
Adenoprosin works by lowering the activity of phospholipase A2 and reducing the release of arachidonic acid, which leads to a decrease in the synthesis of prostaglandins (PG) and leukotrienes (LT).
It also helps reduce prostate swelling, improve microcirculation, and regulate the tone and movement of the lower urinary tract.
By enhancing urine flow, decreasing the frequency of urination, and alleviating discomfort associated with incomplete bladder emptying, Adenoprosin significantly improves the overall urinary function and quality of life for patients with chronic prostatitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
How is Adenoprosin used?
Adenoprosin is administered rectally, meaning it is inserted into the rectum.
The recommended dosage for adults is one suppository per day.
It is best to use the medication at the same time each night.
Before using the suppository, it is advised to have a bowel movement or perform a cleansing enema.
After inserting the suppository, the patient should lie down for 30 to 40 minutes to allow the medication to be absorbed properly.
The duration of treatment typically lasts from 1 to 3 months, depending on the severity of the prostate inflammation and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
In some cases, the treatment course may be repeated if necessary.
If a dose is missed, do not take a double dose to make up for it. Instead, resume the regular schedule.
