ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the clinical utility of TCM decoction pieces for reinforcing deficiency in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University (hereinafter referred to as our hospital).Methods By using Microsoft Office Excel 2013 software, use frequency, classifications of pharmacological actions and doses of the TCM decoction pieces for reinforcing deficiency from 2013 to 2015 were analyzed.Results From 2013 to 2015, some TCM decoction pieces for reinforcing deficiency showed relatively high use frequency in our hospital (>30%). In top 15 TCM decoction pieces for reinforcing deficiency, the amounts of medicine for tonifying qi were more than 40%, whose average doses exceeded the upper limit of pharmacopoeia dosage reaching 30%. The total over-use rate of TCM decoction pieces for reinforcing deficiency>50% and the not exceeded part accounted for 36.0%.Conclusion It is suggested that the use of TCM decoction pieces should be careful differentiation of symptoms, and the dose should also meet the specifications.
