Observation on the curative effect of Qufengqingre method in treatment of the patients with cough after cold / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo explore the curative effect of Qufengqingre method in treatment of the patients with cough after cold.Methods74 patients with cough after cold were selected and randomly divided into the control group(36 cases) and the observation group (38 cases ).The control group was given roxithromycin (150 mg every time,two times every day),ketotifen( 1 mg every time,one time every night),pentoxyverine citrate(50mg every time,3 times every day).The observation group was given Qufengqingre decoction,and the decoction was boiled in water twice per dose,and mixed juice about 300 ml was abtained for morning and evening oralling.The efficacy,symptoms score and adverse reactions were observed.ResultsIn the control group,7 patients were cured,effective in 21 cases,invalid in 8 cases,and in the observation group,17 cases were cured,effective in 18 cases,invalid in 3 cases.The total effective rate of the observation group was 92.1％ higher than 77.8 ％ of the control group ( x2 =4.16,P ＜ 0.05 ).The cough and sputum score of the two groups before treatment was ( 2.18 ± 0.73 ) points and ( 1.09 ± 0.27 ) points,(2.26 ± 0.65 ) points and ( 1.12 ± 0.23 ) points,respectively,and after treatment was ( 1.11 ± 0.37 ) points and (0.65 ± 0.16) points,(0.72 ± 0.19 ) points and (0.35 ± 0.08 ) points.Differences in scores between the two groups before treatment were not statistically significant(t =1.29,1.31,all P ＞ 0.05 ) ; In the two groups before and after treatment were statistically significant( t =2.68,2.59,2.43,2.41,all P ＜ 0.05 ) ; After treatment the difference between the two groups were statistically significant( t =2.53,2.37,all P ＜ 0.05 ).Both groups had no obviously adverse reactions.ConclusionQufengqingre method in treatment of the patients with cough after cold had remarkable effect.
