Analysis of rational drug use of Chinese patent medicines in different clinical types of coronary heart disease
Objective To analyze the rational drug use of Chinese patent medicines in different clinical types of coronary heart disease,and to standardize the rational and safe use of drugs by patients.Methods From December 2020 to December 2023,330 patients with coronary heart disease treated with Chinese patent medicines in a hospital were collected,and the prescriptions of all patients treated with Chinese patent medicines were extracted,and the types of drugs used in these prescriptions,the sales amount of related drugs,and unreasonable prescriptions were analyzed.Results The top three types of Chinese patent medicines used by patients with coronary heart disease in this study were Qi-activating and blood-activating agents,Qi-invigorating and blood-activating agents and Huayu Tongmai agents,accounting for 30%,25.15%and 9.7%respectively.In this study,the top ten drugs in the sales amount of Chinese patent medicines for coronary heart disease are Naoxintong Capsule,Wenxin Granule,Suxiao Jiuxin Pill,Compound Danshen Dripping Pill,Xuesaitong Soft Capsule,Tongxinluo Capsule,Ginkgo Leaf Pill,Shensongyangxin Capsule,Musk Baoxin Pill and Xuezhikang Capsule.The analysis shows that the top three DDDs are Compound Danshen Dripping Pill,Suxiao Jiuxin Pill and Naoxintong Capsule,while the top three DDC are Ginkgo Leaf Pill,Xuezhikang Capsule and Compound Danshen Dripping Pill.The reasons for irrational drug use in these prescriptions are lack of TCM dialectics,repeated drug use,improper course of treatment and improper dialectics,accounting for 3.94%,2.42%,1.52%and 0.91%respectively.Conclusion There are many kinds of Chinese patent medicines used to treat coronary heart disease in the hospital,which are basically reasonable,but there are still unreasonable phenomena,which require pharmacists to intervene and strengthen rational drug use.
