Clinical Observation of Cinobufacini Capsule in the Treatment of Intractable Hiccup / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Cinobufacini capsule in the treatment of tumor patients with intractable hiccup. METHODS:120 tumor patients with intractable hiccup were randomly divided into observation group(60 cases) and control group (60 cases) according to the random number table. Control group received conventional treatment,treat-ment of primary disease,and the basic treatment of Methoxy metoclopramide tablets 10 mg,tid and intraorbital pressure on neural network method;observation group additionally received Cinobufacini capsule,2 capsules once,3 times a day. 1-week was regard-ed as a treatment course,and it lasted 4 courses. Clinical efficacy,Karnofsky functional status(KPS)score and disappearance time of hiccup were observed,and the incidence of adverse reactions was evaluated by TESS scale. RESULTS:After treatment,the to-tal effective rate in observation group was significantly higher than control group,the disappearance time of hiccup and TESS score were significantly shorter than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no significant difference in the KPS score;after treatment,the KPS score in 2 groups was significant higher than before,and observa-tion group was higher than control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Both efficacy and safety of Cinobufacini capsule in the treatment of intractable hiccup are good,and it can shorten hiccup duration.
