Brief Summary  

Urolithiasis is a common and recurrent disease, impacting the quality of life of the affected individuals. IBHB is a standardized fenugreek extract showed excellent safety profile in toxicological studies. IBHB showed efficacy in animal model of kidney stone in terms of  reduced number of crystals and reversal of histological damage to interstitial areas of tubular epithelial cells with significant reduction in tubule interstitial damage index (TDI). 

The present double blind, placebo controlled, randomized pilot study objective is aimed at evaluation of efficacy and safety of IBHB (300 mg tablets twice daily) in patients with Urolithiasis for 12 weeks. A total of 100 patients will be randomized to receive test drug or placebo in ratio of 1:1. The primary outcome measure of the study is proportion of subjects with reduction in the size of renal calculus/calculi. Secondary outcome measures are proportion of subjects with reduction in the size and complete expulsion of renal calculus, reduction in the diameter of largest renal calculus, number and sum of diameters of renal calculi, change in the pH of urine and estimated creatinine clearance, change in pain by VAS scores, number, amount of analgesics consumed, QoL by KDQOL-SFâ„¢. Safety outcome measure include number of drop-out subjects, number of patients with UTI, incidences of AEs, physical examination, vital signs and lab parameters.
