Objective To systematically evaluate the clinical effectiveness and safety of Breviscapine injection combined with conventional therapy in the treatment of unstable angina pectoris (UAP). Methods The literature were systematicly retrieved about the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Breviscapine injection for UAP. The Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Table was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the RCTs and then the data were extracted and meta-analysed by RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 15 RCTs with 1202 participants were included. In the meta-analysis, the combination of Breviscapine injection and conventional therapy in the treatment of UAP can achieve better angina pectoris curative effect (Z=7.74, P<0.01), the RR (95% CI) was 1.23 (1.17,1.30), and the electrocardiogram curative effect (Z=6.26, P<0.01), the RR (95% CI) was 1.32(1.21, 1.44). Furthermore, Breviscapine injection can improve hemorheologic parameters. And there was no major or serious adverse drug event. Conclusions The Breviscapine injection combined with conventional therapy shows good therapeutic effect on UAP.
