Pharmacological properties

Pharmacodynamics

Prostagut forte is a drug that has anti-inflammatory, antiandrogenic, decongestant, antiproliferative and immunomodulatory effects.

The anti-inflammatory and anti-edematous effect of the drug is due to its ability to inhibit the main links of the arachidonic acid cascade and the synthesis of prostaglandins and leukotrienes, as a result of which permeability, edema, pain and inflammation of the prostate tissue decreases.

The immunomodulatory effect of the drug is explained by the ability to suppress the autoimmune effect on the prostate tissue during inflammatory processes and to reduce the proliferation of active lymphocytes.

The antiproliferative and antiandrogenic effect of the drug is associated with inhibition of the enzymes aromatase and 5α-reductase, as a result of which the formation of estradiol and dihydrotestosterone from testosterone, hormones that promote the growth of prostate tissue, is prevented.

Thanks to the active ingredients, Prostagut forte with benign prostatic hyperplasia reduces burning sensation and pain when urinating, helps to empty the bladder quickly, reduces symptoms of urinary disorders and the frequency of false / nocturnal urge to urinate. It does not affect sexual activity.

Reviews about Prostagut Fort

Reviews of Prostagut Fort on specialized medical sites are quite contradictory. Some patients confirm the high efficiency of the drug and claim that it significantly improved their condition. Others, on the contrary, write that in their case, the therapy did not give results and did not in any way reduce the negative symptoms associated with inflammation of the prostate.

According to doctors, benign prostatic hyperplasia is a disease that requires an individual and integrated approach, and should be treated not with a separate drug, but according to a certain scheme. Experts note that Prostagut forte has proven itself well as part of combination therapy in combination with other drugs (for example, Dalfaz or Proscar).
