Influence of Uro-Vaxom on sIgA level in urine in children with recurrent urinary tract infections.
We have examined the influence of Uro-Vaxom on secretory IgA (sIgA) level in urine of children with recurrent urinary tract infections. In the group of children treated with antibiotics and Uro-Vaxom, a significant increase of sIgA in the urine was found which persisted for at least 3 months. During this period no infection appeared in 92% examined children.
