This study compared dienogest alone versus dienogest combined with mebicar and phenibutum for endometriosis, finding the combination therapy slightly more effective over six months.

The paper reports development and testing of a complex drug therapy regimen in 80 women with endometriosis, including 80 women with adenomyosis, divided into two groups and followed for six months. In group 1 (n=42), participants received dienogest (Vissane) 2 mg daily for six months, while group 2 (n=38) received dienogest 2 mg daily for six months plus mebicar (Adaptol) 500 mg twice daily and phenibut (Noophen) 250 mg twice daily for three months. The authors found slightly higher clinical efficacy for the combined therapy with non-hormonal drugs compared with progestin therapy alone. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it evaluates improved therapeutic management using dienogest alone versus dienogest combined with Adaptol and Noophen, with adenomyosis included in the study population.

Abstract

It was developed and tested a complex drug therapy of women with endometriosis. Within 6 months of the study’s authors are actively watching the 80 women with adenomyosis, which were divided into two groups. The first group of women (n = 42) administered progestin therapy for 6 months – Vissane (dienogest 2 mg). The second group included 38 patients treated with combined therapy: Vissane (dienogest 2 mg) daily for 6 months, Adaptol (mebicar 500 mg) twice a day and Noophen (phenibutum 250 mg) twice a day for three months.The results showed a slightly higher clinical efficacy of progestogen therapy (Visan) in combination with non-hormonal drugs (Adptol and Noophen).
