Abstract:
ObjectiveTo comprehensively evaluate the clinical value of Feilike mixture and provide a basis for the allocation of medical resources， rational drug use， and hospital procurement and supply of Chinese patent medicines. MethodWith the data from available studies and provided by drug manufacturers， the methods of evidence-based medicine， pharmacoeconomics， and health technology assessment were employed to construct a multi-criteria decision-making analysis framework from the "6+1" dimensions of safety， effectiveness， economy， innovation， suitability， accessibility， and characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. The clinical evidence and value evaluation software of Chinese patent medicine， CSCv2.0， was used to comprehensively evaluate the clinical value of Feilike mixture. ResultBased on the existing clinical evidence， the following results were obtained. ① Safety： Multi-sources of evidence showed that Feilike mixture had little known risk and sufficient evidence， with the safety rated as grade A， which indicated good safety. ② Effectiveness： The systematic review and Meta-analysis showed that Feilike mixture combined with conventional Western medicine in the treatment of bronchitis shortened the time to disappearance of cough compared with conventional Western medicine alone， with the evidence rated as grade B by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment， Development， and Evaluations （GRADE） system， which indicated high effectiveness. ③ Economy： From the perspective of health system， Feilike mixture combined with conventional Western medicine was more economical than conventional Western medicine alone， and the quality evaluation of pharmacoeconomics rated the economy as grade B. ④ Innovation： Feilike mixture combined with conventional Western medicine improved the clinical treatment effect and had innovation advantages compared with similar drugs. From the aspects of cultivation， identification of medicinal materials， and production， the sufficient supply and safety of medicinal materials can be ensured for Feilike mixture. This medicine was rated as grade B in terms of the medicinal material quality， preparation technology， and patents， which indicated good innovation. ⑤ Suitability： According to the results of the questionnaire survey， the usage of Feilike mixture was easy to be mastered and accepted by doctors and nurses， without special administration time， complex personalized treatment， and special technical and management requirements. It is convenient for patients to use， with convenient supply and storage， and weak influences of policy， publicity， and drug information. Therefore， the suitability of Feilike mixture was rated as grade B. ⑥ Accessibility： Among the similar Chinese patent medicines， Feilike mixture had a moderate price， high production capacity， wide sales coverage， wide coverage of hospitals， sustainable supply of medicinal materials， and low costs of treatment for acute bronchitis， with the accessibility rated as grade A. ⑦ TCM characteristics： Feilike mixture is composed of Scutellariae Radix， Peucedani Radix， Stemonae Radix， Gentianae Rhodanthae Herba， Scleromitrion diffusum， Firmiana platanifolia Radix， and Aster ageratoides， with reasonable compatibility. This formula is derived from the medical experience of Miao ethnic group， with rich experience in human use and the TCM characteristics rated as grade B. According to the evaluation results in the "6+1" dimensions， Feilike mixture was evaluated as class B， with a high clinical value. ConclusionAccording to the existing clinical evidence， compared with conventional Western medicine alone， Feilike mixture combined with conventional Western medicine demonstrates a high clinical value and prominent TCM characteristics in the treatment of acute bronchitis with phlegm-heat invading lung. It is suggested that it should be translated into the basic clinical drug management policy results according to the conditions.
