Abstract:
Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of lactulose combined with Bacillus subtilis duplex living bacterium in patients with constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome.Methods A total of 98 patients with constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome were divided into 3 groups according to the therapeutic drugs:lactulose group (33 cases),Bacillus subtilis duplex living bacterium group (30 cases) and combined treatment group (35 cases),and patients in all groups received mosapride.The course of treatment was 2 weeks in all groups.The symptoms of patients with abdominal pain,abdominal distention,defecate condition and quality of life before and after treatment was observed.Results The total efficacy of abdominal pain,abdominal distention in combined treatment group was higher than that in lactulose group and Bacillus subtilis duplex living bacterium group,in lactulose group was higher than that in Bacillus subtilis duplex living bacterium group,and there was significant difference (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in defecate Bristol grade before treatment among three groups (P > 0.05).There was significant difference in defecate Bristol grade after treatment among three groups(P < 0.05).There was significant difference in defecate Bristol grade before and after treatment in three groups(P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the quality of life before treatment among three groups (P > 0.05),the quality of life after treatment in three groups was higher than that before treatment,and there was significantdifference (P < 0.05).After treatment,the quality of life in combined treatment group was higher than that in lactulose group,in lactulose group was higher than that in Bacillus subtilis duplex living bacterium group,and there was significant difference (P < 0.05).Conclusions The combined regimen of lactulose and Bacillus subtilis duplex living bacterium is more effective than lactulose or Bacillus subtilis duplex living bacterium alone.Thus the combined regimen of lactulose and Bacillus subtilis duplex living bacterium is an effective therapeutic method for constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome.
