[Zinc, calcium and sodium values in secretions of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia].

Abstract

In two randomized patients groups suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) two exprimate samples were drawn at a seven-day interval. In the untreated control group no changes in the values of Ca, Na and Zn were found. In the other group the patients have been treated with ERU capsules (Radicis urticae) for 7 days and thereafter a significant decrease of Zn values were found.
