Journal Title: Journal of Drug Discovery and Therapeutics - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Stone formation is one of the painful urologic disorders that occur in approximately 12% of the global population and its reoccurrence rate in males is 70-81% and 47-60% in female. It is assessed that at least 10% of the population in industrialized part of the world are suffering with the problem of urinary stone formation. Herbal remedies are gaining their importance due to inefficiency of standard pharmaceutical drugs, and reoccurrence is possible by treating with ultrasonic energy and surgery. As investigations proved that phytotherapy is potent in preventing and curing renal calculi with fewer side effects and produced satisfactory results in preventing reoccurrence of renal stones. As there are no satisfactory drugs in modern medicine, herbal remedies are proved to exert their effectiveness at different stages of stone pathophysiology; the plant based therapy is used as adjunct therapy for better relief.
