Abstract:
Objective To compare the effects of oral use of Compound Danshen Dripping Pills and Mecobalamin Tablets on hemorheology and nerve conduction velocity of diabetic peripheral neuropathy patients. Methods A total of 70 diabetic peripheral neuropathy patients were randomized into treatment group and control group, 35 cases in each group. Both groups were given fundamental treatment for controlling blood glucose, blood lipids and blood pressure, and additionally the treatment group was treated with Compound Danshen Dripping Pills orally and the control group was treated with Mecobalamin Tablets orally. The treatment for the two groups lasted 3 continuous months. The changes of hemorheology and nerve conduction velocity of the two groups were observed before and after treatment. Results After treatment, indexes of hemorheology and nerve conduction velocity of the two groups were much improved(P<0.05 compared with those before treatment). The improvement of hemorheology indexes in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group (P < 0.05), but the difference of improvement of nerve conduction velocity was insignificant between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion The effects of oral use of Compound Danshen Dripping Pills on the nerve conduction velocity of diabetic peripheral neuropathy patients are similar to those of Mecobalamin Tablets, but the pills have better effects on improving hemorheology than the tablets. The results indicated that Compound Danshen Dripping Pills are effective on improving blood flow and nerve conduction velocity of the limbs of the patients.
