Abstract:
Objective To observe the efficacy of ginger-partitioned moxibustion plus Chinese medication enema in treating diarrhea caused by antibiotics. Method Forty patients with antibiotics-induced diarrhea were randomized into an observation group and a control group. Twenty cases in the control group were treated by Metronidazole and Live Combined Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus tablets; twenty cases in the observation group were given ginger-partitioned moxibustion plus Chinese medication enema. The total effective rate and the change of abdominal pain index were observed after successive 7-day treatment. Result The total effective rate in the observation group (90.0%) was significantly higher than that in the control group (70.0%) (P<0.05); the diarrhea score was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Ginger-partitioned moxibustion plus Chinese medication enema can promote the recovery of antibiotics-induced diarrhea, mitigate abdominal symptoms and signs, and enhance the quality of life of patients.
