Efficacy observation on Uremic Clearance Granule combined with ARB or ACEI for treating massive proteinuria in patients with diabetic nephropathy / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effects of Uremic Clearance Granule combined with angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) or angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) in treating different period of diabetic nephropathy (DN ) .Methods 46 patients with DN were divided into the control group and the treatment group ,23 cases in each group .The two groups were given the rou-tine hypoglycemic therapy .The control group was treated with ACEI or ARB ,while the treatment group was given Uremic Clear-ance Granule 5 g each time ,four times daily for successive 4 weeks .Then the indexes of serum creatinine ,blood urea nitrogen ,cysta-tin-C ,microalbumin and 24 h urine total protein at 24 h before and after treatment were observed .Results The microalbumin and 24 h urine total protein after treatment in the two groups were reduced compared with before treatment (P0 .05) . In the patients with the stage Ⅳ of DN ,on the basis of ACEI or ARB adding Uremic Clearance Granule could significantly decrease the urine protein(P<0 .05) .Conclusion ACEI or ARB combined with Uremic Clearance Granule has definite effect for treating massive proteinuria of DN .
