Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of a combination therapy using Jinghong decoc-tion and metformin sustained-release tablet in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods A total of 100 patients with clinically diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients from our center were randomly assigned into three groups:control group 1(treated with metformin sustained-release tablet),control group 2(treated with traditional Chinese medicine Jinghong decoction),and the observation group(treated with a combination of Jinghong decoction and metformin sustained-release tablet).The group sizes were 30,30,and 40,respectively.Results The effective rate in the observation group was 90.0%,significantly higher than 70.0%and 13.3%in control groups 1 and 2,respectively,with statistical significance(P<0.05).Post-treatment,the observation group showed lower blood glucose levels compared to the control groups,with statistical significance(P<0.05).Additionally,adverse reactions were milder in the observation group based on observations.Conclusion The combination of Jinghong decoction and metformin sustained-release tablet effectively im-proves clinical symptoms of type 2 diabetes mellitus with fewer adverse effects,suggesting its potential for widespread clinical application.
