Clinical trial on Augmentin against acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis (AECB) in adults
Objective:The safty and efficacy of Augmentin (amoxicillin/clavulanic acid 500/125mg) was evaluated through clinical study in treating acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis. Methods: A randomized-controlled clinical trial on Augmentin
cefuroxime and cefaclor against AECB was designed
Thirty-six patients were enrolled
who were divided into three groups
and each group included twelve patients. Augmentin 625mg Bid×××7d; cefuroxime 250mg Bid7d; cefaclor 250mg Tid7d. Results: The clinical effective rates of augmentin was 91.7%
compared with 83.7% of cefuroxime and 91.7% of cefaclor. The bacterial eradication rate was similar among three groups. Incidence of adverse reactions was 8.3% (1/12) in Augmentin group. Conclusion: The efficacy and safty of Augmentin in treating AECB was reliable.
