Abstract:Objective To study the effect of Suhuang Zhike Capsules combined with Montelukast in the treatment of patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods From June 2017 to January 2019, 146 patients with stable COPD treated in Puren Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University of Science and Technology were recorded as observation objects. The patients were divided into observation group and control group according to random number table method, with 73 cases in each group. The two groups were treated with routine treatment, on basis of which, the patients in the control group were treated with Montelukast, and the observation group was treated with Suhuang Zhike Capsules on basis of the control group. The two groups were treated for 3 months, and the efficacy, St george′s respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ) scores, pulmonary function, inflammatory factors and adverse reactions of the drugs were compared between the two groups. Results The total effective rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). After treatment, the SGRQ scores in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment, and the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). After treatment, the forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), FEV1/maximal vital capacity (FEV1/FVC), maximal ventilation volume (MVV) and residual volume/total lung volume (RV/TLC) in the two groups were significantly higher than those before treatment, which of the observation group were significantly higher than the control group (P < 0.05). After treatment, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-17, IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment, which of the observation group were significantly lower than the control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Suhuang Zhike Capsules combined with Montelukast is effective in the treatment of stable COPD patients, and can improve the pulmonary function and inflammatory factor level of the patients, and the safety is also good, which is worth promoting.
