I. WHAT IS GOOD TO KNOW ABOUT KIDNEY STONE DISEASE?
Kidney stones are formed as a result of the accumulation and precipitation of excess amounts of substances in the urine. They are usually hard deposits of minerals and salts (calcium, oxalates, cysteine, uric acid) that form in the kidneys. They are the result of the urine becoming concentrated, allowing the minerals to crystallize and stick together.
TYPES OF KIDNEY STONES
Depending on their chemical composition, kidney stones are divided into organic and inorganic.
1. Inorganic kidney stones:
• calcium oxalate – calcium oxalate monohydrate (wevelite), calcium oxalate bihydrate (wedelite);
• calcium phosphate – calcium phosphate (apatite), calcium hydrophosphate (brushite), tricalcium phosphate (whitlockite), carbonapatite (dalite);
• magnesium phosphate – magnesium ammonium phosphate (struvite), magnesium hydrogen phosphate (nuberite).
2. Organic kidney stones:
• urate – uric acid stones;
• cystine;
• xanthine – have a brownish color, soft consistency and easy brittleness;
• cholesterol - they have a black color, a soft consistency and are easily crumbly.
Very often, kidney stones have a mixed chemical composition. Determining the composition of kidney stones is an important element in making decisions about their subsequent removal and is an essential part in selecting preventive measures against their re-formation.
Kidney stones can be removed by various methods of breaking them up or by spontaneous elimination (renal crisis).
METHODS FOR BREAKING UP KIDNEY STONES
1. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL). This method uses the power of sound waves to break up stones smaller than 2 cm.
2. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a method for breaking up large kidney stones over 2 cm in size. This is a surgical intervention in which the kidney is penetrated through a small hole in the skin in the hip area and the stones are reached.
3. Ureterorenoscopy (URS) – a modern and bloodless treatment method in which thin instruments (ureteroscopes) are inserted through the bladder and urinary tract (ureter) to reach the kidney.
The presence of residual stones after lithotripsy (kidney stone disruption – ESWL), percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) or ureterorenoscopy (URS) is associated with an increased risk of recurrence. To limit the morbidity caused by these residual fragments, e.g. risk of regrowth, new stone formation, manifestation of infection, it is important that they are completely eliminated from the body.
RENAL CRISIS
The most common symptom of kidney stones is pain in the lower back and flanks. The pain of kidney stones occurs when the stone begins to move through the urinary system. Very often, the stones “get stuck” in the narrow channels of the urinary tract and cause severe pain – the so-called renal crisis.
A characteristic of a renal crisis is the sudden onset and variable intensity of the pain. The unpleasant painful sensation is caused by a spasm of the smooth muscles of the urinary tract, which tries to push the stone down towards the bladder, in order to expel it from the body.
As the stone moves, it injures the urinary tract and makes it vulnerable to infection. Therefore, if adequate measures are not taken during the crisis, a secondary infection of the urinary system often develops, further complicating the condition.
Taking painkillers and drinking plenty of fluids can help reduce pain and make it easier to pass the kidney stone. In other cases, when the stones get into the urinary tract, they can cause a urinary tract infection or other complications. In such cases, surgery may be necessary.
To facilitate the elimination of kidney stones or smaller fragments after applying the various methods for breaking stones, agents are also used that relax the walls of the urinary tract, thereby reducing pain. Various agents are also used to increase diuresis, which helps to expel kidney stones. The use of agents that contain substances that lubricate the urinary tract facilitates the sliding of the stone as it moves through the urinary system.
II. WHAT IS NEORENAL® FORTE?

· Patented standardized dry extract of Birch leaves (Belula pendula) – 500 mg

Urinary Tract: Keeps the urinary tract healthy by helping to cleanse it with the act of urination. It works favorably to maintain comfort along the entire urinary tract - bladder, ureters, and urethra.
Bile: Promotes the drainage of bile.
