ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the pharrnacodynamics of compound Chuanxiong granules in treating dysmenorrhea.Methods The effects of compound Chuanxiong granules on uterus contraction,anti-inflammatory,analgesia and hemostasis were researched by rat's uterine smooth muscle contraction test in vivo,the level of prostaglandins F2α effect test,mice torsion model induced by oxytocin test,mice auricle swelling model induced by dimethylbenzene test,and the coagulation time of mice test.Results Compared wAth the model control group,Chuanxiong granules may obviously inhibit smooth muscle constriction resulted from oxytocin (the average inhibition ratio in high-dose group,middle-dose group and low-dose group were 32.3％,27.2％,17.6％),decline the levels ofprostaglandins F2 [the value in high-dose group,middle-does group and low-dose group was (79.2±4.3)rig/L,(79.3 ±12.9) ng/L and (88.2±7.6) ng/L] inhibit twist times of mice (the value in high-dose group,middle-does group and low-dose group was 39.4％,46.8％,24.8％),inhibit the auricular swelling of mice caused by dimethylbenzene [the value in high-dose group,middle-does group and low-dose group were(31.7±21.0)％,(35.6±33.7)％,(59.3±35.0)％],and shorten the coagulation time [thevalue in high-dose group,middle-does group and low-dose group was(41.1±9.7)s,(43.3±10.1)s,(50.5±10.8)s respectively].Conclusion Compound Chuanxiong granules is a effective agent to relieve dysmenorrhea.
