Observation on the Efficacy of Shouhui Tongbian Capsule in the Treatment of Functional Constipation and Study on Its Regulatory Effect on Intestinal Flora

Functional constipation is relatively common in both adults and children, exhibiting similar symptoms. However, there are significant differences in the epidemiology, symptomatology, pathophysiology, diagnostic tests, and treatment management of functional constipation by age. The treatment of funct...

However, there are significant differences in the epidemiology, symptomatology, pathophysiology, diagnostic tests, and treatment management of functional constipation by age. The treatment of functional constipation is generally based on lifestyle interventions, pelvic floor interventions, and pharmacotherapy. Pharmacological treatment is popular as the most direct and effective modality, especially the herbal preparations (e.g., Shouhui Tongbian capsule), which are popular for their lower toxic side effects and less physiological reactions. In our clinical study, patients with functional constipation who took Shouhui Tongbian capsules for a longer period of time showed significantly better improvement than those who took them for a shorter period of time (P<0.001). Relative to the duration of the disease, the improvement effect was higher in patients with short duration of the disease than in patients with long duration of the disease (P<0.001). What’s more, Shouhui Tongbian capsule had a regulating effect on intestinal flora, and the regulating effect was stronger in patients with a shorter disease duration.Hongxi ZhangBao HanZhiyun ZhangZhenguo TianYongduo YuHindawi LimitedarticleMedicine (General)R5-920Medical technologyR855-855.5ENJournal of Healthcare Engineering, Vol 2021 (2021)
