see also under Urinary tract infection, internal phytotherapy. With the increase in resistance to antibiotics, herbal remedies are increasingly coming to the fore. A distinction should be made here between aquaretics (plant-based diuretics), urinary tract disinfectants, micturition-influencing agents and agents against urinary stone formation.
Aquaretics and disinfectants are suitable for the treatment and prophylaxis of urethritis.
Aquaretics promote the blood circulation of the glomeruli of the kidney with an increase in the amount of primary urine. see under: Birch - Betulae folium, Goldenrod - Solidaginis herba, Hauhechel - Ononidis radix, Parsley - Petroselini herba, Juniper - Juniperi fructus and Cat's Bit - Orthosiphonis folium.
