[An open randomized comparative trial of efficacy and safety of selective alpha-adrenoblocker setegis (terazosin) in therapy of patients with chronic bacterial prostatitis].

Abstract

An open randomized comparative trial of setegis (terazosine) has shown good subjective and objective results in patients with chronic bacterial prostatitis. The drug is well tolerated and produces insignificant side effects. It is also demonstrated that combined therapy with alpha-adrenoblockers is more effective that monotherapy with antibacterial drugs in patients with bacterial prostatitis.
