Complementarity problems with combination of TCM and Western medicine . in treating rheumatoid arthritis
in recent years, many peers recognized limitations of the respective roles of TCM and Western medicine drugs, claims or integrated with combination of TCM and Western medicine in treating rheumatoid arthritis. Considers the combination of disease and syndrome differentiation, combining macro and micro, is especially important in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, is a line of thought of treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
at present, scholars on the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis Rheumatology unified understanding of thought:
(1) to early diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis;
(2) early detection of rheumatoid arthritis;
(3) drug combination of early disease mitigation;
(5) with combination of TCM and Western medicine;
(6) observation of long-term effect.
1 weaknesses, reasonable treatment of early rheumatoid arthritis, once confirmed, at least 2 years of treatment plans should be closely elaborated, should also be distinguished are benign or progressive RA, which is vital to control treatment. If not treated properly, generally occurs in the 1-2 erosion of bone and joint, joint function significantly affected, therefore now advocate early positive treatment to control disease progression, in the case of patient tolerance, as soon as possible combined use. Clinical practice of a large number of confirmed that integrated Chinese-Western therapy can effectively regulate the immune function, relieve the liver and kidney damage, improve efficacy significantly lower immune inhibitor, in isolated Western medicine in the treatment of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and hormone dosage, describes some Chinese medicine has a role in regulation of immune and adrenal function, has the characteristics of anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug and slow effects. Effect of Common Threewingnut Root, pharmacology studies have shown that has anti-inflammatory and analgesic and immunosuppressive effect, is capable of inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis and pituitary-adrenal system inhibits excitatory cellular and humoral immunity. Its clinical effect both non-steroidal . anti-inflammatory drug and slow effects feature. Represented by zhengqing Ning sinomenine preparation, with a role in the slow, and methotrexate, Liu nitrogen sulfapyridine, joint use, reducing drug doses, thereby reducing the drug side effects. Effect of total glucosides are commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine, nourishing blood and soft effects such as liver, relieving spasm and pain, pharmacological studies have shown that slow pain, stress resistance and anti inflammatory double regulation effects of abnormal immune function, total saponins of Paeonia lactiflora Pall has liver protective and antioxidant role; clinical studies have shown that its high security, slow onset, may be slow antirheumatic drugs. Combined with traditional Chinese medicine to help function in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, helps hormone withdrawal to prevent rebound phenomenon occurs, reducing road in the course of treatment of peptic ulcer, necrosis of the femoral head and other complications, to improve patients ‘ quality of life.
2 combination of disease and syndrome differentiation
modern pharmacology study concluded that reconcile the Yin-Yang drugs have immunomodulatory effects. Raising Yin drug can reduce immune inhibitor caused of side effects, also can suppression immune function of with hyperthyroidism; Yi gas drug can improve body non specific immune function; soothing wind clearing away heat and Lee wet drug has anti-inflammatory de sensitive of role; Huatan soft Caine drug has immune inhibition; clearing away heat and detoxification drug has suppression super sensitive reaction, elimination immune composite property of role; huoxue of stasis contraceptive has improve patients of blood hypercoagulable State, tie supplement renal drug promoting bone marrow hematopoietic function, can confrontation methyl ammonia Butterfly methotrexate, due to immune function excessive suppression. These studies from the perspective of modern medicine provides a theoretical basis for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, demonstrated therapeutic advantage.
treated by combination of TCM and Western medicine for rheumatoid arthritis, mainly of disease and syndrome differentiation combining acute, progress should be based on a combination of primary, speedy control, prevention of joint involvement. At the same time the worry cure its underlying principles, the use of heat-clearing and dampness, invigorating the spleen, nourishing yin and invigorating stomach therapy, control of synovial inflammation. Destruction of lesion and declining consumption makes internal milieu disorder, resistance, there is excess heat, imbalance of yin and Yang, Qi and blood stasis and phlegm obstruction of collaterals, such as performance, then treatment of traditional Chinese medicine fuzheng general weakness should be the main approaches to treatment, played Chinese medicine tonifying liver and kidney, supplementing Qi and blood, spleen function, quality improvement, regulation of immune function, improve efficacy. Slow antirheumatic drugs as the current preferred drug, and the organic complex of traditional Chinese medicine is particularly necessary, disadvantages, playing their respective strengths, creating synergy.
Beijing Heng hospital experts concluded: rheumatoid arthritis is still a difficult diseases that threaten human health, individual relying on any kind of drug is not achieving the desired therapeutic effect. Taking advantage of traditional medicine, Chinese medicine and modern medicine to integrate organic, found a method that is clinically proven to reduce pain in patients with, improvement of the quality of life.
