Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of flupirtine maleate combined with amitriptyline in the treatment of thalamic pain after stroke. METHODS:A total of 70 patients with thalamic pain after stroke in our hospital during Jan. 2016-Aug. 2017 were divided into control group(34 cases)and observation group(36 cases)according to random number table. Both groups received secondary prevention therapy of stroke. Based on it,control group was given Amitriptyline hydrochloride tablet 25 mg/time orally,tid. Observation group was additionally given Flupirtine maleate capsule 0.1 g/time orally,tid,on the basis of control group. Treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 4 weeks. VAS,HAMD17 and HAMA14 scores of 2 groups evaluated before treatment,after 1,2,3,4 weeks of treatment Clinical efficacies and the occurrence of ADR were observed in 2 groups. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in the scores of VAS,HAMD17 or HAMA14 between 2 groups(P>0.05). VAS score and HAMD17 score of observation group after 1,2,3,4 weeks of treatment,those of control group after 2,3 and 4 weeks of treatment were significantly lower than before treatment;the observation group was significantly lower than the control group at different time periods(P<0.05 or P<0.01). HAMA14 score of 2 groups after 2,3,4 weeks of treatment were significantly lower than before treatment;the observation group was significantly lower than the control group at different time periods(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Total efficiency rate(91.67%)of observation group were significantly higher than that(67.65%)of control group(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (11.76% vs. 11.11%)(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Flupirtine maleate combined with amitriptyline can effectively relieve thalamic pain after stroke,and improve post-stroke,anxiety depression,which are better than control group,and the incidence of ADR is familar to control group.
