Abstract

Objective To study the clinical effect of combined anluohuaxianwan and adefovir dipivoxil treatment on patients with chronic hepatitis B. Methods 60 patients with chronic hepatitis B were randomly divided into 2 groups,namely group A and group B.Group A received a combined treatment with anluohuaxianwan and adefovir dipivoxil, while group B received adefovir dipivoxil only. The therapeutic period was 6 months. The levels of HA,LN,PCIII,IV-C,TBIL,ALT,AST,and HBV-DNA quantity were determined both before and after the treatment. Results After 6 months of treatment, the levels of HA, LN, PCIII and IV-C were lower in both group A and B. The improvement of HA, LN and IV-C in group A was significantly better than those in group B (P0.05). The levels of TBIL, ALT and AST were improved in both group A and B after the treatment, and the improvement of TBIL, ALT and AST in group A was significantly better than group B (P0.05). However,the level of HBV-DNA was lower in both group A and B after the treatment, and the difference in improvement between the group A and B was not significant(P 0.05). Conclusion Combination of anluohuaxianwan and adefovir dipivoxil is effective in the treatment of patients with hepatic fibrosis of chronic hepatitis B.
