Treatment of leucopenia with pure Astragalus preparation
摘要
This article reports the effects of pure Radix Astragali preparation (PAP) in treating 115 cases of leucopenia. These cases were divided at random into two groups. Group A (58 cases) was treated by highly concentrated PAP
every 10 ml equal to 15 grams of Radix Astragali (RA)
group B (57 cases) was treated by lowly concentrated PAP
every 10 ml equal to 5 g of RA. The patients took the PAP twice a day
10 ml each time. The course of treatment was 8 weeks for both groups. The results showed there was an obvious increase of the WBC counts in both groups after treatment (P<0.001). The effectiveness in group A was 82.76%
while in group B 47.37%
they were statistically different (P<0.01). The total effective rate of the 2 groups was 65.22%. According to the comparison average WBC counts after treatment of group A was significantly higher than that of group B (P<0.05). The results were dose-dependent. The author holds that RA is an effective drug in treating leucopenia
and increasing the dosage could enhance its effectiveness.
