Abstract

The aim. to study the therapeutic influence of new pessaries Melanizol based on metronidazole and tea tree oil on the background of model of “chemical” vaginitis in female rats.

Materials and methods. The therapeutic effect of pessaries Melanizol was studied in female rats on the model of "chemical" vaginitis with using argentum nitrate, which provokes vaginitis not burdened by infection. Against the background of vaginitis, the general condition of animals, the dynamics of body weight, the morphological composition of peripheral blood and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), pH, biochemical parameters (total protein, ALT and glucose), temperature in the vagina of rats, macroscopically assessed changes in the vaginal mucosa (VM) were studied.

Results and discussion. Against the background of pathology in the animals, a shift in the studied indicators was observed. Pessaries Melanizol at the dose of 21 mg/kg make a therapeutic effect on the model of experimental "chemical" vaginitis, caused by argentum nitrate, as indicated by the restoration of the VM state, reduced the number of leukocytes, restored the percentage composition of the leukocyte formula, reduced the amount of total protein and the cytolytic enzyme ALT in blood serum and vaginal contents, which indicates the anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective effect of the studied agent. The recovery of vaginal temperature, pH and the amount of glucose in the vaginal contents was also observed, which indicates the normalization of homeostasis in the vagina of experimental animals. According to these effects, the studied pessaries Melanizol were superior to the reference drug "Gravagin" at the dose of 30 mg/kg and were not inferior to the reference drug Hippophaes oleum pessaries (HOP) at the dose of 17.64 mg/kg.

Conclusions. The therapeutic effect of new pessaries Melanizol based on metronidazole and tea tree oil on the model of "chemical" vaginitis in female rats has been proven. The investigated pessaries Melanizol are a promising drug for the treatment of non-specific vaginitis and require further research in this direction
