Abstract:
Objective To explore clinical efficacy and safety of combining acupuncture and Dalitong granule in the treatment of functional dyspepsia. Methods A total of 240 patients with confirmed functional dyspepsia were randomly recruited into four groups: a combination group, a acupuncture group, a Dalitong granule group and a control group. Symptom score, plasma motilin, gastric emptying, total effective rate and adverse reaction were observed before and after the reatment in four groups. Results The symptom score, plasma motilin, and gastric emptying were improved in every group after the treatment (P＜0.01 ). Above-mentioned detecting indexes were better in the combination group than other groups (P＜ 0.05).The total effective rate was 96.67% in the combination group, showing significant difference comparing with other groups (P ＜0.05 ) . No serious adverse reaction occurred in each group. Conclusion Combined treatment of acupuncture and Dalitong granule can increase plasma motilin, promote gastric emptying, alleviate the symptom of functional dyspepsia, and increase total effective rate, with better security and tolerance.
