ABSTRACT
The present study systematically evaluated the efficacy and safety of Pushen capsule (PC) in the treatment of hyperlipidemia (HPL) to provide the basis for its clinical application in the future. The randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of PC in treating HPL were comprehensively retrieved from four Chinese databases and three English databases. The included RCTs were evaluated using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool, followed by the Meta-analysis by RevMan 5.3. Twenty-four RCTs were included, with 2 634 patients involved. The patients in the experimental group were treated with PC, PC combined with conventional therapy,or PC combined with other Chinese patent medicine. The cases in the control group were treated conventionally or by other Chinese patent medicine. Meta-analysis results showed that PC alone or in combination was superior to the treatment in the control group in improving total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),and total response rate. Fourteen trials reported adverse reactions, including seven reporting specific results. The adverse reactions were dominated by epigastric discomfort, but the difference was not statistically significant. However, affected by the quality of the included trials,the evidence strength of the conclusion of this study is graded low. More high-quality RCTs reported in detail are needed for further confirmation.
