Summary

This study looked at whether a supplement called Q-Urol (containing quercetin, bromelain, rye flower pollen, and papain) could reduce prostatitis symptoms in men with prostate cancer who had brachytherapy radiation. Ten men were enrolled, and the study compared the supplement to a placebo using symptom questionnaires. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
