The efficiency of a new peptide medicine-Prostatilen was studied when using it in acute postoperative retention of urine. Under observation there were 87 patients of 23-78 years of age after hemorrhoidectomy, plasty of the rectal sphincter or dissection of its fissure etc. The patients endured the treatment with Prostatilen well. Self-dependent urination was recovered during the nearest 40 min after injection of 5 mg of the medicine. In the treatment of 23 patients it was used prophylactically before the appearance of a micturate urge. In 14 of them the postoperative period was smooth, in 9 patients the self-dependent urination was recovered following one additional injection. Clinical observations confirm that Proctatilen has a regulating effect upon the bladder tone which allows it to be recommended as a medicine for prevention of acute reflex retention of urine after operations in the area of the rectal sphincter.
