The rapeutic effect of Cefpodoxime proxetil granules in treatment of acute bronchitis in children / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To study the efficacy and safety of Cefpodoxime proxetil granules in the treatment of acute bronchitis in children.@*Methods@#One hundred and sixty children of the First People′s Hospital of Nanning from June to December 2018 with acute bronchitis were randomly divided into cefpodoxime group and cefaclor group, with 80 cases in each group.All patients received routine treatment.On this basis, 80 patients in the cefpodoxime group received oral Cefpodoxime proxetil granules 5 mg/kg (not more than 100 mg/time), twice a day; 80 patients in the cefaclor group received oral Cefaclor.The granules were 10 mg/kg (not more than 250 mg/time), 3 times a day, and the course of treatment was 5 days.The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions were observed.@*Results@#The cure rate and effective rate of Cefpodoxime group were 91.3% (73/80 cases) and 95.0% (76/80 cases), respectively, while the cure rate and effective rate of Cefaclor group were 66.3%(53/80 cases) and 81.3%(65/80 cases), respectively, and the differences between the 2 groups were statistically significant (χ2=14.94, 7.23, all P<0.05). Sixty-three strains of pathogenic bacteria and 66 strains of pathogenic bacteria were obtained in Cefpodoxine group and Cefaclor group, respectively, and the detection rates of bacteria in the 2 groups were 78.75% and 82.50%, respectively.There was no significant diffe-rence in the number of bacterial strains and strains detected in each group (χ2=0.36, P>0.05), but the total bacterial clearance rate in Cefpodoxine group was 88.9%(56/63 cases) while the bacterial Clearance rate in Cefaclor group was 74.2%(49/66 cases), and the difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (χ2=4.57, P<0.05). In particular, the bacterial clearance rate in Cefpodoxine group to Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae were significantly higher than those in Cefaclor group, while the bacterial Clearance rate of Proteus and Escherichia coli were lower than those in Cefaclor group.The incidence of adverse reactions in Cefpodoxine group and Cefaclor group were 5.0% and 3.8%, respectively, with no significant difference (P>0.05).@*Conclusions@#The clinical effect of Cefpodoxime pro-xetil granules in treating children with acute bronchitis is more significant than that of Cefaclor.It has high safety and no serious side effect.
