Physiopathology of renal colic and the therapeutic consequences.

Van Laecke E, Willem Oosterlinck

Open publisher page 18 citations

Abstract

NSAID are by far the most efficient therapy in renal colic treatment as they directly interfere with the physiopathology of a renal colic. Other therapies that have been standard are now shown to be insufficient or even contraindicated. Hydratation during a renal colic seems to be unimportant. The efficiency of stone-expulsive drugs has still to be proven.
