Analysis on Therapeutic Effect of Western and Chinese Drug in Treating Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy

摘要

Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Yinchenghao decoction (YCHD, 茵陈蒿汤) and S-adenosy-L-methionine (SAM) in treating intra-hepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (TCP) and improving prognosis of perinatal newborn babies. Methods: Sixty in-patients of TCP were randomly divided into two groups, the group A treated with YCHD and the group B treated with SAM. The symptom of itching and serum biochemical indexes, including glycocholic acid, bilirubin and transaminase, were observed after 3 weeks treat-ment, and the prognosis of perinatal newborn babies between the two groups was compared after delivery. Results: After treatment, the symptom of itching, serum levels of glycocholic acid, bilirubin and transaminase improved significantly (P0. 05). Conclusion: Both YCHD and SAM could effectively treat ICP. The former is rather cheaper, so it is more feasible for spreading.Original article on CJITWM (Chin) 2004 ;24(4):
