The usage of pharmacopuncture in medical complexes for lumbosacral dorsopathies

   The material is devoted to the results of a number of own studies in the field of local drug stimulation (pharmacopuncture) – a technique for irritating reflexology points with small doses of drugs. In this respect, the topic being developed fits well into the general course of the problem of low-energy therapeutic effects, interest in which has only increased recently. In the mechanisms of technology, the role of prolongation of the reflex response and the formation of the depot of the drug used is distinguished. However, the issues of summation and, moreover, potentiation of these influences remain unclear, which determined the implementation of a series of works.

   The object of observation was lumbosacral dorsopathy, since the bulk of research on local stimulation is devoted to the correction of these conditions.

   Naturally, the enduring medical, social and economic significance of the problem of dorsopathies was taken into account. In the work performed, the mechanisms and effectiveness of pharmacopuncture with Alflutop, shown in the pathology under study, were analyzed. The evaluation of the effectiveness of the method included in the complex therapy programs was based on taking into account the dynamics of clinical and additional (psychological, electrophysiological) characteristics of the patient’s condition. At the same time, the addition of the reflex and drug links of the method was confirmed, which determines its significant superiority over the compared methods. In this regard, the structural-modifying effect in the form of shifts in the state of the intervertebral discs, observed in the course of the combined application of the selected technology and electromagnetic stimulation, was of fundamental importance. In addition, within the framework of the affected direction, an effective scheme of exposure was proposed, combining the techniques of drug blockade according to the method of A.V. Vishnevsky and pharmacopuncture with Alflutop.
