Clinical Trials on Zhenjujiangya Tablets Combined with Long-acting Antihypertensive Drugs in the Treat-ment of Hypertension / 中国药师

ABSTRACT

To determine the efficacy and safety of Zhenjujiangya tablets combined with long-acting antihypertensive drugs in the patients with hypertension. Methods:A controlled study was carried out among 220 patients meeting the inclusion / ex-clusion criteria. All the patients were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group. Both groups were treated with long-acting antihypertensive drugs as usual. The 110 patients in the experimental group were orally treated with Zhenjujiangya tab-lets ( bid) , while the other 110 patients in the control group were orally treated with Zhenjujiangya simulated tablets ( bid) , and the treatment course was 4 weeks. The efficacy was assessed using the reduction range of blood pressure, the clinical symptom score of hy-pertension and the indicators of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring as the indices, and the safety was assessed by the symptoms, signs and laboratory tests. Results:After the four-week treatment, the systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and hyperten-sion clinical symptom score were significantly decreased in the two groups, and the changes in the experimental group were more signifi-cant than those in the control group (P0. 05). After the treatment, the changes in average systolic blood pres-sure in 24h and daytime in the experimental group showed statistically significant difference (P0. 05), and the number of abnormal blood pressure in 24h and daytime in the experimental group exhibited reduction trend. There were no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between the two groups (P>0. 05). Conclusion:Long-acting antihypertensive drugs combined with Zhenjujiangya tablets can further improve the antihypertensive efficacy without significant adverse reactions, which is suitable for clinical application.
