Kidney stones is a composed of mineral salts formed in
the kidneys. Men account for the 80% of those with kidney stones and
are at risk of the formings between 30 and 40 years of age. About 75% of
kidney stones are calcium stones.
Treatments
In herbal medicine perspective
1. Asparagus racemosus Willd
In the study of the ethanolic extract of Asparagus
racemosus Willd. for its inhibitory potential on
lithiasis (stone formation), induced by oral administration of 0.75%
ethylene glycolated water to adult male albino Wistar rats for 28 days,
showed that the histopathological findings also showed signs of
improvement after
treatment with the extract. All these observations provided the basis
for the conclusion that this plant extract inhibits stone formation induced by ethylene glycol treatment(22).
2. Goldenrod
Investigations in molecular pharmacology could show new mechanisms
responsible for the biological effect of natural product from goldenrod extracts. The use of such herbal preparations with a rather complex action
spectrum (anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, diuretic, antispasmodic,
analgesic) is especially recommended for treatment of infections and
inflammations, to prevent formation of kidney
stones and to help remove urinary gravel. This therapy is safe at a
reasonable price and does not show drug-related side-effects, according
to the study of the Institut für Pharmazie der Freien Universität
Berlin, Berlin(23).
3. Other herbs
In the study of the effects of seven plants with suspected application to prevent and treat stone kidney formation (Verbena officinalis, Lithospermum officinale, Taraxacum officinale, Equisetum arvense, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, Arctium lappa and Silene saxifraga) in female Wistar rats, showed that beneficial effects caused by these herb infusions on urolithiasis can be
attributed to some disinfectant action, and tentatively to the presence
of saponins. Specifically, some solvent action can be postulated with
respect to uric stones or heterogeneous uric nucleus, due to the
basifying capacity of some herb infusions. Nevertheless, for all the
mentioned beneficial effects, more effective and equally innocuous
substances are well known(24).
