Canephron: analogues, instructions for use, price, reviews

Various pathologies of the genitourinary system occur in a huge number of people.

They arise for a variety of reasons, from hypothermia to unfavorable environmental conditions.

There is a large arsenal of medications for the conservative treatment of urological diseases.

Moreover, effectiveness is shown not only by medicines consisting of chemical compounds, but also by medicines that include plant components.

Representatives of such drugs are “Nefrosten” and “Canephron”.

Analogs

If treatment with the described medication for some reason turns out to be impossible, the doctor may prescribe an analogue for the active ingredient or therapeutic effect.

Cyston or Canephron: which is better?

Cyston and Canephron differ significantly from each other. Firstly, there are nuances regarding the age at which drugs are allowed to be taken. Treatment with Canephron is allowed even for infants (in liquid form), while taking Cyston in any dosage form is contraindicated for children under 4 years of age.

Indications for use of Canephron are:

  • inflammatory manifestations in the ureter, kidneys, urethral canal and bladder;
  • urolithiasis.

The medicine helps to quickly relieve pain attacks, eliminate irritation and spasms of the bladder, and has a strong anti-inflammatory effect.

Taking Cyston is indicated:

  • for stones in the kidneys and ureter;
  • for therapeutic purposes for long-term diseases of the urinary system.

The medicine dissolves phosphate stones (the most dangerous for health) and crystalline stones quite well and removes them from the body without pain. In addition, under the influence of Cyston, the bacterial flora dies and spasms in smooth muscles are quickly relieved. Thanks to long-term use of the drug, surgery can be avoided.

Important! Since Cyston contains large quantities of plant components, it can often cause the development of allergies. And Canephron provokes an allergic reaction very rarely. So people who suffer from allergies should choose this drug.

A specialist must decide which medicine is best in each specific case, taking into account the course of the disease and the characteristics of the human body.

Cost of Cyston

Nephrosten as an analogue

Nephrosten is a Russian analogue. The medication helps eliminate inflammation in the urinary organs, relieve pain, spasms and remove excess fluid from the body.

Due to the delicate composition of Nephrosten, it is prescribed for therapeutic purposes to patients with any kidney problems. The product is approved for use by pregnant women and nursing mothers.

But it should be taken into account that under its influence the development of nettle fever or angioedema is possible. Although such a reaction is exceptional if there is intolerance to the herbs in its composition.

The cost of Nefrosten No. 60 is from 280 rubles.

Phytolysin and Canephron: comparative characteristics

The only identical component in the preparations is lovage. Although the components of the drugs are different, both drugs have a complex beneficial effect on the urinary organs, which contributes to:

  • cleansing the renal glomeruli and tubules from toxic substances and pathogenic accumulations;
  • accelerating the removal of stones;
  • suppression of the activity of gram-positive pathogenic microorganisms;
  • enhancing the medicinal properties of other medications, including antibiotics;
  • eliminating spasms in the bladder, reducing pain;
  • preventing the progression of urolithiasis.

It is not possible to fully monitor the pharmacokinetics of these medications due to their combined composition. But the contraindications are clearly defined.

Both drugs are contraindicated in case of hypersensitivity to the herbs in their composition. Regarding possible negative reactions, both medications can provoke skin rashes, vomiting and digestive dysfunction. A package of Phytolysin costs from 400 rubles.

Urolesan or Canephron: what to choose

Both drugs have almost identical pharmacological effects. Urolesan is a complete analogue, but its cost is much lower. In addition, the medicine practically does not provoke negative pathological reactions. Which medicine to choose in each specific case must be decided by the attending physician, taking into account the characteristic characteristics of the patient’s body and the course of the disease.

The cost of Urolesan packaging is 284-360 rubles.

Nephrosan or Canephron: which is better?

What both products have in common is the use of natural plant ingredients in production. The drugs have similar therapeutic effects. They are prescribed for preventive and therapeutic purposes for similar pathologies of the urinary organs. Also, medications have similar contraindications and can cause the same side effects.

The specialist decides which drug is best, based on the characteristics of the disease and the characteristics of the patient’s body.

On average, a package of Nefrosan costs 300-500 rubles.

Uronefril as a substitute

Both medications are drugs with similar components. They contain natural ingredients:

  • rosemary (leaves);
  • centaury;
  • lovage (rhizome).

Both drugs are indicated for use against the following diseases:

  • cystitis;
  • urethritis;
  • pyelonephritis;
  • interstitial nephritis;
  • glomerunonephritis.

They are also prescribed to prevent the formation of urolithiasis.

Canephron is more often prescribed because the medicine is very popular. Although Uronefril is practically no different from it. If patients under 6 years of age are to be treated, Canephron solution is preferred.

Uronefril No. 60 costs at least 190 rubles.

Uroprofit or Canephron: what to choose

If a quick effect on the inflammatory area is necessary, Canephron is preferred. If the patient has problems with the gastrointestinal tract, the choice is Uroprofit. Both drugs are excellent in preventing the development of exacerbations in chronic infectious urological pathologies. The doctor must decide which medicine to choose in each specific case.

The cost of Uroprofit No. 30 is at least 380 rubles.

Nitroxoline and Canephron: comparative characteristics

The drugs have different components. Nitroxoline is a synthesized pharmacological agent, and Canephron is a herbal medicine.

Nitroxoline has an antibacterial effect, and Canephron has a complex effect on the urinary organs, has an antispasmodic, diuretic, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effect.

Taking Nitroxoline is indicated even in the treatment of people suffering from alcoholism. While using Canephron in this case is prohibited.

The price for a box of Nitroxoline No. 50 is at least 60 rubles.

Furadonin or Canephron: which is better?

The doctor can decide which medication is best for cystitis. For this purpose, an appropriate examination is carried out to determine the pathogenic organism that provoked the development of the inflammatory process. This makes it possible to find out whether a herbal remedy will help cope with the pathogen, or whether you will have to undergo a course of therapy with a synthetic antimicrobial drug.

Furadonin is a more powerful agent. However, if there are contraindications for treatment with synthetic drugs, preference should be given to Canephron. To prevent the development of relapse of genitourinary and kidney pathologies, experts advise taking Canephron, and for diseases of an infectious nature and some types of bacteria, taking Furadonin is recommended.

The cost of Furadonin with a dosage of 50 mg No. 10 is from 60 rubles; No. 20 – from 80 rubles.

5-nock as an analogue

These medications cope well with the unpleasant symptoms characteristic of cystitis, although they act in completely different ways.

5-nock is an antibiotic, its effect can be noticed just a couple of hours after use, by significantly weakening the symptoms. After a couple of days of treatment with this remedy, the pathogen is completely destroyed.

However, you should not stop taking the medicine after the symptoms of the disease disappear to avoid pathogen resistance to the medicine.

Important! Simultaneously with pathogenic microorganisms, under the influence of the active substance 5-nok (nitroxoline), beneficial microflora is also partially destroyed. Everyone has had to deal with complications of antibiotic therapy. To restore the microflora, you will have to take probiotics for a long time.

Canephron has similar properties and is also effective in fighting bacteria, although the drug is not as strong. The purpose of the herbal components of the medicine is to wash away pathogenic microorganisms.

Improvement is observed after longer treatment.

With advanced cystitis, taking Canephron alone may be ineffective; at the same time, you will have to undergo a course of antibiotic therapy.

The cost of 5-knock No. 50 is at least 170 rubles.

Furamag or Canephron: what to choose

Furamag is a gentle antibacterial agent. It is effective in the treatment of pathologies of the genitourinary system and belongs to the nitrofurans. The medicine is prescribed for therapeutic purposes if the genitourinary organs are affected by pathogenic bacteria, which leads to the appearance of unpleasant symptoms. The drug helps to quickly cope with the disease and prevent the subsequent progression of infection.

Analogues for pregnant women

Many expectant mothers are interested in whether the drug has cheap analogues for pregnant women. Below we look at the most popular options.

Canephron N

Very often the question arises of how Canephron differs from Canephron N. The answer is simple - nothing, this is the herbal medicine Canephron described above, which is presented on the pharmaceutical market in the form of tablets and drops. Some people mistakenly assume that Canephron is a medicine in the form of tablets, and the second option is in drops. But that's not true.

Composition of Canephron N

Both names are used to refer to the same drug (as, for example, acetylsalicylic acid is called Aspirin). Let's say more, Canephron is a colloquial version of the name with the letter “N”. That is, both options are a drug with an identical chemical composition and pharmacological action, which is prescribed to patients with different ailments of the urinary system.

Cyston

The tablets belong to the same pharmacological group as Canephron. They are also taken to create a diuretic effect, treat inflammation, fight bacteria and relieve pain in the organs of the excretory system.

The list of active components of Cyston includes saxifrage stems, rough strawflower seeds, polyfolia onosma, ashen veronia and didymocarpus flowers. In addition to plant components, the preparation contains silicon lime, mineral resin and some additional components.

Components of the drug

Cyston is indicated for infectious lesions of the urinary tract and urolithiasis, cystitis, urinary disorders, renal colic or pyelitis.

The drug is well tolerated and has no side effects (except for cases of individual non-acceptance of the components), including when combined with other medications.

Approved for use by expectant and nursing mothers, but may be dangerous for people with stones in the urinary tract.

Phytolysin

This is a herbal remedy with a diuretic that relieves inflammation and relieves pain. The list of active ingredients consists of wheatgrass root, onion peel, grass and parsley seeds, goldenrod, hernia, horsetail, lovage, and birch leaves. The drug is prescribed for inflammation and bacterial diseases of the urinary system, as well as for dissolving stones.

Phytolysin is the safest analogue for breastfeeding and pregnancy. It rarely produces negative effects.

In particular, allergic manifestations, nausea, headache, and changes in taste sensations may occur. It should be used with extreme caution in complex therapy, as well as during exacerbations of renal and cardiac pathologies, acute disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. The drug is presented on the market in the form of a paste for oral use.

In addition, Fitolysin Prenatal is available on the market in the form of capsules, the composition of which is significantly different from the medicine in paste form. Phytolysin capsules consist of ascorbic acid and cranberry fruit extract, which is a natural antibacterial agent that has proven itself in urology.

Other available products with similar effects

Nowadays, there are quite a few analogues of the drug Canephron on the pharmaceutical market. Some of them are more expensive, others are cheaper. However, price is not always an indicator of effectiveness.

What is the difference

The means under consideration differ in the following parameters:

  1. Country - produced in Russia, domestic pharmaceutical. "Canephron" is produced in Germany.
  2. Different release format. The Russian remedy is only in tablets, the German one is in pills and drops.
  3. The domestic herbal remedy is a dietary supplement. Germanic is an independent medicine.
  4. Nephrosten tablets contain additional components, resulting in a slight antioxidant effect.
  5. The Canephron solution contains alcohol. This imposes restrictions on the use of this form in some categories of patients.

Finally, the price difference is very significant. For Canephron in tablets you will have to pay 450-600 rubles , in drops - 400-500 rubles . “Nefrosten” in the form of dragees will cost 234-245 rubles .

But here it is worth considering that the imported drug has been present on the pharmaceutical market for more than 40 years. During this time, it has proven to be an effective and safe medicine used in many countries. The Russian dietary supplement is only 7 years old .

Canephron H

The German pharmaceutical company is a recognized leader in the production of herbal medicines.

One of her most successful creations is the combined herbal medicine Canephron, which literally contains a whole “botanical garden” of healing plant ingredients.

Thus, centaury herb has a diuretic and antimicrobial effect, lovage root has an antispasmodic effect, and rosemary leaves have an anti-inflammatory effect.

In the “dry” residue, canephron has a pronounced antimicrobial, antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory effect on the urinary tract, stimulates blood circulation and reduces the permeability of the walls of the renal capillaries, has a diuretic effect, increases the efficiency of the kidneys, and enhances the effect of complex antimicrobial therapy.

One of the main pharmacological “trump cards” of the drug is water diuresis. An increase in urination occurs due to the dilation of blood vessels in the kidneys caused by lovage essential oils and the intensification of blood circulation in this area. The bitterness of centaury also helps the vessels expand.

The diuretic effect of canephron is due to phenolcarboxylic acids, which are contained in abundance in the plant components of the drug. They, along with lovage phthalides, have an antispasmodic effect. Rosmarinic acid has an anti-inflammatory effect. All components of canephron have an antimicrobial effect, because

they contain substances with appropriate pharmacological activity (secoiridoids, phenolcarboxylic acids and others).

Canephron is rarely used in “solo” mode: given its ability to increase the effectiveness of antibiotic treatment, it is most often used as part of complex treatment. The drug is well tolerated and has proven itself only from the best side in terms of safety.

However, you should clearly understand that no matter how wonderful properties medicinal herbs have, a clear effect from their use can only be noticed with long-term use.

If the course of the disease is aggravated by an actively developing inflammatory process and persistent elevated body temperature, then one cannot rely only on plant canephron.

The drug is available in the form of an oral solution and tablets. The solution can be washed down with water, or diluted with a small amount of liquid. Adults, as a rule, are prescribed 50 drops three times a day, schoolchildren - half as much with the same frequency of administration, and preschool children - 15 drops 3 times a day.

Before use, the bottle with the solution must be shaken several times. For pills, the recommended dosages are as follows: 2 pcs. 3 times a day for adults and 1 pc. 3 times a day for school-age children.

The weakening of symptoms does not indicate the need to stop taking Canephron: it should be continued for another 2-4 weeks, accompanying herbal medicine with the consumption of large amounts of fluid.
