Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of oral use of Yibai Tongfeng Pills for the treatment ofgouty arthritis with damp-heat obstruction. Methods One hundred and sixteen gouty arthritis patients were randomized into treatment group (N = 62) and control group (N = 54). The treatment group was treated with Yibai Tongfeng Pills orally, and the control group was treated with oral use of Colchicine Tablets and Sodium Bicarbonate Tablets at acute stage and with oral use of Benzbromarone Tablets at remission stage. Twelve weeks constituted one treatment course. Clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated after treatment, and the changes of C-reactive protein(CRP), white blood cell(WBC) and uric acid(UA) levels in the blood of the two groups were observed before and after treatment. Results (1) The total effective rate of the treatment group was 93.55%and that of the control group was 83.33%, the difference being significant(P<0.05).(2) After treatment, the scores of syndrome manifestations of the two groups were obviously decreased(P < 0.05 compared with those before treatment), and the decrease in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group(P<0.05) . (3) After treatment, CRP, WBC and UA levels in the blood of the two groups were much improved(P < 0.05 compared with those before treatment), and the improvement of CRP in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group(P<0.05), while the differences of the improvement of WBC and UA between the two groups were insignificant (P > 0.05). Conclusion Yibai Tongfeng Pills are effective for the treatment of gouty arthritis with damp-heat obstruction by improving syndrome manifestations and rapidly decreasing CRP level.
