Abstract:
In this research, 67 patients with acute viral hepatitis are divided in two groups: one group of 33 patients used Chµm TÝa infusion, the other of 34 patients didn't use it. We studied both their clinical and paraclinical changes and made the comparisons. The results are shown as follows: Good effect has been demonstrated in the group of moderately severe patients with typical acute viral hepatitis at dose of 90g of fresh leaves. Chµm tÝa has decreased more rapidly these symptoms: tiredness, poor appetite, dyspepsia, jaundice. These improvements are significant with p< 0.05. Chµm TÝa has normalized the total bilirubinemia, ASAT, ALAT, more rapidly in comparison with the control group and it has shortened significantly the treatment course (p<0.05).
