Abstract

A study to evaluate the efficacy of trichomonas colpitis treatment with topical drug osarbon was performed. This drug consists of three main components: osarsol 250 mg, 300 mg boric acid, 300 mg of glucose and solid fat as an excipient.

We observed 60 women of reproductive age who have been diagnosed with trichomonas colpitis based on clinical and laboratory data.

All patients were divided into two statistically significant, identical groups depending on the treatment. Given that trichomoniasis is a multifocal disease, in accordance with all international guidelines for the treatment used a drug with systemic action ornidazole. Osarbon used for the local therapy.

Group I consisted of 30 patients with the trichomonas infection who received ornidazole for systemic effects for 10 days, II group consisted of 30 patients who also received ornidazole with vaginal suppositories osarbon within 10 days. Same times were treated sexual partners, and were given recommendations on the rules of the treatment course and personal care.

Treatment efficacy was assessed by clinical and etiological criteria.

14 days after treatment etiological recovery was observed in 88.2% patients in group I with acute course of disease and in 61.5% patients with chronic course, that the basis for the additional treatment to complete clinical and etiological recovery. Etiological cure in group II patients with acute trichomoniasis was over 100%, with chronic course respectively 85.7%.

Second tests within three months showed etiological recovery among in 86.7% group I patients and among 100% group II patients.

Thus, combination therapy with vaginal suppositories osarbon has high therapeutic effect in treating trichomonas infection and leads to the restoration of the functional vaginal status.
