ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To review economics of budesonide/formoterol and fluticasone/salmeterol for asthma systematically, and to provide evidence-based basis for rational selection of drug to treat asthma.METHODS:
Retrieved from Medline,EMBase, EBM reviews (HTA,NHSEED),CBM,CJFD,Wanfang database,researches about pharmacoeconomics of budesonide/formoterol (test group) versus fluticasone/salmeterol (control group)for asthma were collected,and analyzed with qualitative systematic re-view method.RESULTS:
A total of 7 researches and 13 comparative data were included,containing 6 682 patients. The incidence of severe acute asthma of test group were lower than those of control group,with significant difference(P<0.05). The total costs and direct costs of test group were lower than those of control group. Good effect had been achieved in test group with low cost.CONCLUSIONS:
Budesonide/formoterol is more cost-effective than fluticasone/salmeterol in teenagers patients and adults who fail to control asthma. Due to limitation of included studies,large-scale and high-quality studies are required for further validation of the conclusion.
