Clinical observation on Xiaotan Tongluo Gel together with gabapentin and methylcobalamin in the treatment of postherpetic neuralgia
Objective,2,To investigate the clinical efficacy of Xiaotan Tongluo Gel combined with gabapentin capsules and methylcobalamin tablets in treating postherpetic neuralgia (PHN).,Methods,2,Totally 125 patients with PHN were randomly divided into a treatment group (,n,=65) and a control group (,n,=60). Both groups were administered with gabapentin capsules and mecobalamin tablets orally. Additionally, the treatment group was provided with Xiaotan Tongluo Gel for external application while the control group was provided with placebo gel. Both groups were treated continuously for 2 courses with 14 days in each course. The clinical efficacy was observed, and the changes of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score and serum substance P (SP) level were compared.,Results,2,①The total effective rate was 70.77% in the treatment group and 53.33% in the control group after 14 days of treatment, and the clinical efficacy of the treatment group was better than that of the control group (,P,<,0.05). After 28 days of treatment, the total effective rate was 89.23% in the treatment group and 70.00% in the control group, and the clinical efficacy of the treatment group was better than that of the control group (,P,<,0.01). ②The VAS score, PSQI score, and serum SP level decreased in both groups after 14 days and 28 days of treatment compared with those before treatment (,P,<,0.01). The VAS score, PSQI score and SP level in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group after 14 days and 28 days of treatment, respectively (,P,<,0.05, ,P,<,0.01).,Conclusion,2,Compared with the clinical efficacy of gabapentin capsules and methylcobalamin tablets, the application of Xiaotan Tongluo gel together with gabapentin and methylcobalamin has achieved more satisfactory results in the treatment of PHN, which could better alleviate pain and improve patients’ quality of life.
