ABSTRACT

Objective To observe and analyze the clinical efficacy of amitriptyline combined with domperidone in the treatment of functional dyspepsia ( FD) .Methods 156 patients with FD were selected as the study subjects , and they were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group ,78 cases in each group .The patients in the control group were treated with domperidone ,and the patients in the observation group were given amitriptyline combined with domperidone .The changes of clinical symptoms scores and the occurrence of adverse reactions were observed before and after treatment in both two groups ,and the clinical curative effect was compared .Results After treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was 93.59％,which was significantly higher than 76.92％of the control group,and there was significant difference between the two groups (χ2 =10.59,P<0.01).The early satiety,postprandial bloating,nausea and vomiting,epigastric distending pain,belching and other clinical symptoms scores in two groups were significantly reduced ( tobservation group =21.95,33.78,42.12,37.58,42.64, tcontrol group =17.54,8.88,16.43,10.98,15.06,all P<0.01),and the clinical symptoms of the observation group improved more significantly (t=9.89,9.79,8.47,9.99,18.52,all P<0.01).The incidence rate of adverse reactions in the obser-vation group was 16.67％,which in the control group was 23.08％,the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (χ2 =1.09,P>0.05).After the treatment,the adverse reactions disappeared spontaneously . Conclusion Compared with the use of domperidone alone , the clinical efficacy of amitriptyline combined with domperidone in the treatment of FD patients is significant with good safety ,and is conducive to improve the clinical symptoms of patients ,increase the efficacy and worthy of clinical application .
