BackgroundThe problem of recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM 2) is relevant, especially when there is a combination of predisposing factors, such as female gender, history of UTI episodes, and therapy with sodium glucose cotransporter type 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, and the choice of effective and safe means could cause some difficulties, including ina terms of the burden of antibiotic resistance.AimTo evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the phytoproduct Canephron® N for the prevention of exacerbations of recurrent cystitis and the effect on metabolic parameters in patients with type 2 diabetes taking SGLT-2 inhibitors.Materials And MethodsProspective, randomized, open, parallel group study in 60 women. The main group took the drug Canephron® N for 3 months. The main parameters for evaluating were the frequency of recurrence of cystitis, level of albuminuria and LDL-cholesterol peroxidation product - malondialdehyde.ResultsWithin 3 months of taking Canephron® N, exacerbations of chronic cystitis were diagnosed 2 times less often, a decrease in albuminuria was found in the form of an increase in the proportion of patients with an optimal level of albuminuria by 20%, a 50% reduction in the frequency of the initial increase in albuminuria, and the absence of moderate albuminuria in all patients at the end of course of therapy. A decrease in the level of MDA by 1.4 times was noted (p=0.019).ConclusionThus, the herbal drug Canephron® N can be used for accompanying therapy and prophylactic treatment in patients with recurrent cystitis on the background of DM 2, taking SGLT-2 inhibitors. The course of therapy should last at least 3 months.
