ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the effect of TCM treatment beginning with Fei in reducing the incidence of complicated infection and the antibiotic utilization rate in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>One hundred and ten SLE patients were randomly assigned to 2 groups equally, the control group treated with the conventional Western medicinal treatment and the treated group treated with the same conventional treatment and SLE I formula (in active stage) or SLE II formula (in silent period) additionally.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After 3-month and 6-month treatment, the total effective rate was 83.64% , 87.27% in the treated group, and 78.18%, 81.82% in the control group respectively, showing insignificant difference between the two groups. It lowered in both groups after 1-year treatment, however, which in the treated group (78.18%) was higher than that in the control group (60.00%, P < 0.05). But the difference became insignificant again after 2-year treatment, it being 87.27% in the treated group and 72.73% in the control group. The incidence of complicated infection and antibiotic utilization rate in the 2-year treatment was 23.6%, 55.0% respectively in the treated group, markedly lower than those (50.9% and 100%) in the control group respectively (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>TCM treatment beginning with Fei could decrease the incidence of complicated infection and the antibiotic utilization rate in SLE patients.</p>
