【摘要】 目的 探討降高血壓藥物聯合抗焦慮抑郁藥物萬拉法新治療老年性原發高血壓伴焦慮抑郁障礙的療效及安全性。 方法 納入2006年10月-2008年10月我院門診和住院診治的老年性原發高血壓伴焦慮抑郁障礙患者100例,隨機分為干預組和對照組。所有患者給予常規降壓藥物治療,干預組另外給予萬拉法新治療,治療12周后評價臨床療效。結果 干預組臨床降壓療效總有效率940%,顯著高于對照組總有效率800%(Plt;005)。兩組患者的收縮壓、舒張壓與治療前比較均顯著改善(Plt;005),干預組患者與對照組比較血壓明顯改善(Plt;005)。干預組臨床抗焦慮抑郁療效總有效率960%,顯著高于對照組總有效率580%(Plt;005)。兩組均無明顯的不良反應。結論 降高血壓藥物聯合抗焦慮抑郁藥物萬拉法新治療老年性原發高血壓伴焦慮抑郁障礙療效肯定,且安全可靠,值得臨床推廣應用。【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of antihypertensive drugs combined with antianxiety depression drug venlafaxine for treatment of patients with senile primary hypertension (SPH) and anxietydepression disorder (AD). Methods One hundred SPH patients with AD with were randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group. All cases were given antihypertensive drugs medication,while the intervention group was given venlafaxine. After 12 weeks of treatment,the clinical efficacy was evaluated. Results The antihypertensive efficacy rate in the intervention group was 940%,significantly higher than that of the control group 800% (Plt;005). The systolic blood pressure(SBP)and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of the two groups significantly improved compared with those before treatment (Plt;005), and the intervention group’ SBP and DBP improved significantly than those of the control group (Plt;005). The total effective rate of antianxiety depression efficacy of the intervention group was 960%, significantly higher than that of the control group 580% (Plt;005). The two groups had no significant adverse reactions. Conclusion For patients with senile primary hypertension and anxietydepression disorder,the combination medication with antihypertensive drugs and venlafaxine was safe,reliable and worthy of clinical application.
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of venlafaxine and carbamazepine on painful peripheral diabetic neuropathy. Methods This was a randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, double-dummy clinical trial. 132 patients a venlafaxine group (n=66) and a carbamazepine group (n=66) with painful peripheral diabetic neuropathy were recruited from 3 clinical centers. The venlafaxine group took venlafaxine 25 mg plus one dummy carbamazepine tablet twice a day and the carbamazepine group took carbamazepine 0.1 g plus one dummy venlafaxine tablet twice a day both for 2 weeks. The primary efficacy measurement consisted of a numeric pain intensity scale and the secondary measurement assessed quality of life. Results One hundred and nineteen patients completed the trial. Venlafaxine was superior to carbamazepine in improving mean pain intensity scores at 5,7,10 and 14 days by per-protocol analysis (P=0.02, P=0.03, P=0.003 and P=0.001 respectively). The effects of venlafaxine on the improvement in the total quality of life scores were better than those of carbamazepine at 10 and 14 days (P=0.02 and P=0.01 respectively). Sleep interference and mood were improved by both venlafaxine and carbamazepine, but the efficacy of venlafaxine was superior to that of carbamazepine. The common adverse events of venlafaxine included mild gastrointestinal discomfort, dizziness and somnolence. The frequency of adverse events in the venlafaxine group was about 43.9% (4 patients withdrew because of adverse events) and in the carbamazepine group about 25.76% (2 patients withdrew because of adverse events) (P =0.06). Conclusions Venlafaxine and carbamazepine are effective in the treatment of painful diabetic neuropathy, venlafaxine is superior to carbamazepine in improving pain and quality of life. Both drugs may be safe and well tolerated.
