ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the clinical effects of Compound Xuanju Capsule (CXC) combined with sildenafil on erectile dysfunction (ED) that progressively fails to respond to sildenafil.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Totally, 36 ED patients who progressively failed to respond to sildenafil were randomly divided into a trial and a control group of equal number, the former treated with oral CXC at 3 g tid plus sildenafil at 50 mg an hour before sexual activity, while the latter with sildenafil alone at 100 mg an hour before sexual activity. After 2 months of treatment, we compared the patients' scores on IIEF-5 and their partners' scores on Treatment Satisfaction Scale (TSS) between the two groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The total rate of erectile function improvement was 94.44% in the trial and 88.89% in the control group (P > 0.05). The IIEF-5 score was 20.888 9 +/- 3.833 1 in the former and 18. 777 8 +/- 4.008 2 in the latter after treatment, significantly higher than 13. 166 7 +/- 3.601 5 and 13. 055 6 +/- 2.775 4 before treatment (P < 0.05). The post-treatment IIEF-5 scores of the patients and the TSS scores of their partners were markedly higher in the trial than in the control group (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Compound Xuanju Capsule combined with sildenafil is effective for erectile dysfunction that progressively fails to respond to sildenafil.</p>
