AIM: To improve the therapeutic effects of combined Chinese and western medicine in patients with peptic ulcer (PU).
METHODS: Ninty cases of patients with PU were divided into two groups. Fifty cases in group A were treated with triple therapy [Omeprazole 20 mg qd, Amoxicillin 1.0 g tid, Colloidal Bismuth Subcitrate (CBS) 110 mg tid] for 28 d and the ion therapy of Chinese herbal medicines for 10-20 d; 40 cases in group B only with the triple-therapy as control.
RESULTS: By the 4th week the short-term effective rate (90% in group A versus 85.0% in B), or the ulcer healing rate (80.0% in group A versus 72.5% in B) showed no significant difference between group A and B (P > 0. 05),but patients in group A recovered more quickly than in B (average 8.7 d versus 13.9 d, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSION: This therapy can release the symptoms of PU more quickly, and shorten the period of hospital stay.
