Rheosorbilact improves the efficacy of empirical therapy for pelvic inflammatory disease (a case report)
The article presents a clinical case of the intravenous usage of sorbitol solution additionally to the combi‑nation of levofloxacin and ornidazole in patient with acute bilateral salpingoophoritis. On a background of treatment a significant clinical improvement was observed with subsequent recovery of the patient asso‑ciated with rapid restoration of ovarian artery hemo‑dynamics according to ultrasound Doppler findings. It can be assumed that the sorbitol-containing solution played the role of a hydrodynamic conductor for an‑tibacterial substances in the zone of inflammation. However, further studies are required to confirm this assumption.
Keywords: pelvic inflammatory diseases, empirical antimicrobial therapy, Rheosorbylact, levofloxacin, ornidazole.
