Abstract
Three hundred and ninety five patients with bronchial asthma were randomly divided into 4 groups:patients in group A received inhaled beclomethasone dipropionate(BDP)100μg and Zhichuan decoction;patients in group B were given inhaled BDP 200μg;patients in group C took Zhichuan decoction only;patients in group D were given inhaled BDP 100 μg.Methacholine airway reactivity,pulmonary ventilation function,serum acidophilia cationic protein and symptom score were determined before and after treatment.All above indicators were significantly improved in groups A and B,which suggests that Zhichuan decoction could reduce hormone dosage in control of airway chronic inflammation,reduction of airway reactivity and improvement of pulmonary ventilation function of patients with bronchial asthma.
