Use of Supplements in urology
“In 1984, the government deregulated the dietary supplement industry. Since that time, there has been widespread expansion of marketing efforts to promote products that include vitamins, minerals and herbal supplements as treatment for a variety of medical conditions.
In urology, these conditions include benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), prostate cancer, and erectile dysfunction (ED). Through time, it has become apparent that many of these products carry risks for significant toxicities and in many cases little proven benefit.”
