Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of Xiyanping Injection for the treatment of children with acute suppurative tonsillitis, so as to provide evidence for the prevention and treatment of pediatric acute suppurative tonsillitis with traditional Chinese medicine. Methods Two hundred children with acute suppurative tonsillitis were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, 100 cases in each group. The control group was given routine western medicine treatment, and the treatment group was given Xiyanping Injection based on the treatment for the control group. The treatment lasted for 5 days. The clinical outcomes covered the course of disease, the overall efficacy, adverse reaction, and time for the subsiding of fever, sore throat, swollen tonsils and purulent secretion, as well as the changes of white blood cell count, hyper-sensitivity C reactive protein, alanine aminotransferase, creatinine and creatine kinase levels before and after treatment. Results (1) After treatment, the total effective rate of the treatment group was 97.0% and that of the control group was 87.0%, the difference being significant (P < 0.01). (2) After treatment, time for the subsiding of fever, sore throat, swollen tonsils and purulent secretion as well as hospitalization time of the treatment group was much shorter than that of the control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). (3) After treatment, white blood cell count and hyper-sensitivity C reactive protein level of the two groups were obviously decreased compared with those beforetreatment (P < 0.01) , and the decrease in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group (P <0.01). (4) The inter-group and intra-group comparison of alanine aminotransferase, creatinine and creatine kinase levels before and after treatment showed that the differences were insignificant between the two groups (P > 0.05). No adverse reactions of rash, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, chest distress, shortness of breath, or drug fever were found in the two groups. Conclusion Xiyanping Injection is effective and safe for the treatment of children with acute suppurative tonsillitis by increasing the total efficiency, reducing the time for the subsiding of fever, sore throat, swollen tonsils and purulent secretion, shortening hospitalization time, and decreasing white blood cell count and hyper-sensitivity C reactive protein level. No obvious hepato-renal function damage occurred during the medication.
