Abstract:
Objective To explore clinical effect and safety of N-acetyl cysteine(NAC)effervescent tablet combined with budesonide and formoterol fumarate powder for inhalation in the treatment of patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods Patients with moderate to severe COPD were randomly divided into NAC group,ST group and combination group.NAC group was treated with NAC effervescent tablets[NAC effervescent tablets 0.6 g was dissolved in warm water(≤40 ℃),one tablet/once,qd,take medicine at night],ST group was treated with budesonide and formoterol fumarate powder for inhalation(a inhalation/once,bid),combination group was treated with NAC effervescent tablets and budesonide and formoterol fumarate powder for inhalation.All patients were treated for 7 d.The clinical curative effect,peak expiratory flow(PEF),forced expiratory volume in 1 s(FEV1),FEV1/forced vital capacity(FVC),serum CRP,PCT,SAA,6 min walking test(6MWT)and safety in the three groups were evaluated.Results There were 40 cases in each group.After 7 d of treatment,total response rates of NAC group,ST group and combination group were 77.50％(31 cases/40 cases),80.00％(32 cases/40 cases)and 95.00％(38 cases/40 cases),the differences between combination group and NAC group or between combination group and ST group were statistically significant(P＜0.05),but the difference between NAC group and ST group was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).After 7 d of treatment,FVC levels in NAC group,ST group and combination group were(2.51±0.72),(2.59±0.76)and(3.01±0.82)L,PaO2 levels were(2.24±0.61),(2.29±0.64)and(2.87±0.72)L,FEV1/FVC levels were(89.24±4.28)％,(88.42±4.19)％and(95.35±4.27)％,levels of serum CRP were(19.52±2.12),(19.34±2.09)and(11.85±2.24)mg·L-1,PCT levels were(0.83±0.22),(0.87±0.24)and(0.51±0.13)μg·L-1,SAA levels were(28.95±3.48),(29.23±3.75)and(17.70±2.73)mg·L-1,the differences between combination group and NAC group or between combination group and ST group were statistically significant(all P＜0.05),but the difference between NAC group and ST group was not statistically significant(all P＞0.05).The adverse drug reactions were mainly on abdominal pain,diarrhea,headache,nausea and vomiting in the three groups.The total incidence of adverse drug reactions in NAC group,ST group and combination group was 2.50％,5.00％and 12.50％,the difference among the three groups was not statistically significant(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The curative effect of NAC effervescent tablet combined with budesonide and formoterol fumarate powder for inhalation is significant in patients with moderate to severe COPD,which can effectively improve pulmonary function,reduce levels of serum CRP,PCT and SAA,with good safety.
