ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo further assess the safety of clinical application of Shujin Jianyao pills after marketing and find its potential risk factors as early as possible， to obtain the real world medication situation of Shujin Jianyao pills and its incidence of adverse reactions and clinical characteristics， and to explore the factors affecting the occurrence of adverse drug reactions （ADR）. MethodIn this study， prospective， large-sample， multi-center and intensive whole-hospital monitoring with continuous registration was carried out， combined with telephone follow-up visits 2-4 weeks after the end of medication， for whole treatment course monitoring among patients. In addition， the three-level quality control was strictly implemented in the monitoring process. The study used a proprietary electronic data management system for data management， and SAS 9.4 and R software were used for statistical analysis. ResultFrom May 2018 to July 2020， the study completed the safety monitoring of 3 033 patients taking Shujin Jianyao pills in 30 clinical departments of 25 hospitals in China. A total of 36 ADR cases （49 times） were confirmed by expert assessment on data and supervision quality and expert interpretation of ADR. ConclusionAccording to the World Health Organization （WHO）， the symptoms of adverse reactions were mainly classified into occasional adverse reactions （0.1%≤ADR<1%： abdominal distension， oral ulcer， dry mouth， constipation） and rare adverse reactions （0.01%≤ADR<0.1%： loss of appetite， rash， fatigue， increased ALT， increased creatinine， dizziness， stomachache， stomach distension， liver discomfort， pruritus， dysphoria， acid regurgitation， numbness in mouth， abdominal pain， sore throat， earache， tinnitus）. Moreover， through the synthetic minority oversampling technique （SOMTE） combined with logistic regression， the following factors might affect ADR： taking Shujin Jianyao pills for 1-14 days， aged 46-65， 66-80 and 81 and above as well as combined use of atorvastatin， cobamamide， calcitriol capsules， Gushukang capsules， glucosamine， nifedipine， methylcobalamin， metformin， Tenghuang Jiangu pills， Bugu tablets， and diclofenac sodium sustained-release tablets. This study provided a real world basis for the safety and standardized use of Shujin Jianyao pills in clinical practice.
