Biologically active additive Uromax has a vegetative basis and is used to improve the functionality of the urinary system.
Indications of the uromax
Uromax is recommended as a biologically active additive to the diet, as an auxiliary source of natural antioxidants, organic acids, vitamins and flavonoids.
Uromax is used to improve the function of the urinary system, to stimulate metabolic processes, to prevent and treat complex infections of the bladder and kidneys (cystitis, pyelonephritis).
Uromax is indicated for patients with asymptomatic bacteriuria, urolithiasis. The drug Uromax improves the properties of urine, relieves the body of metabolic products and prevents the formation of kidney stones.
Release form
The biologically active agent Uromax is available in capsular form at 400-500 mg. Packing is cardboard, contains a blister plate with 20 capsules.
In one capsule Uromax contains such ingredients:
- extract from cranberries;
- lactose;
- calcium stearate.
The capsule shell Uromax is made on the basis of gelatin.
Pharmacodynamics
The property of the main ingredient Uromax to prevent the introduction of bacteria into the urinary system is more relevant to Escherichia coli pathogenic microorganism, which most often causes the development of urinary tract infections. This property of Uromax is the rapid "washout" of the infectious agent, which helps prevent the spread of bacteria and the development of the inflammatory process.
Extracting cranberries can potentiate the action of antibiotics and antiseptics, which are usually prescribed for the treatment of infectious pathologies of the urinary system.
It is proved that the extract from cranberries has also fungistatic action concerning dermatophytes and other fungi.
Uromax also has a diuretic effect. In the presence of kidney stones, the drug lowers the level of ionized calcium in the urinary fluid by more than 50%, which can be considered a good prevention of further formation of stones.
Cranberry, which is contained in Uromax, shifts the pH of the urine to the acidic side, since it contains quinic acid, which prevents the combination of calcium and phosphate ions, and prevents stone formation.
Pectic components of cranberry extract form bonds with heavy metals - such as lead or strontium - which contributes to the overall detoxification of the body.
Dosing and administration
Adult patients should take Uromax once a day after breakfast, in the amount of 2 capsules. It is recommended to drink Uromax with a sufficient amount of liquid (not less than 200 ml).
The average duration of taking Uromax supplement is 10 days.
