Abstract Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Clopidogrel Betahistine, Danshen injection inthe treatment of vertebral basilar insufficiency( Vertebral-basilar artery insufficiency, VBI). Method: Inclusion andexclusion criteria in strict accordance with VBI patients enrolled 120 cases, according to a list of random numbers into thetreatment group of 60 patients received Betahistine 10-30 mg, 5% dextrose injection or 0.9% sodium chloride injection,a after day 1, Danshen injection, intravenous infusion, a 10-20 mL with 5% glucose injection 100-500 mL diluted afteruse, day 1, and oral Clopidogrelbisulfate tablets, for the first time to give 600 mg, 150 mg/d. The control group receivedbetahistine joint compound Danshen injection. Two consecutive 7-21 d after treatment to assess the extent of the patient’svertigo, and using TCD to detect vertebral-basilar artery blood flow velocity and blood rheology, and follow 30 d, observedthe occurrence of recent TIA or cerebral infarction. Result: The treatment group was 0-2 h from patients and 0-6 heffective accounting effect from patients was 48.3%, 36.7%. The proportion of patients in the control group 0-2 h onsetpatients and 0-6 h onset was 28.3%, 58.3%. Treatment group was efficient, the total efficiency was 65.0% and 93.3%,respectively, in the control group significant efficiency, total efficiency of 41.7% and 75.0 %. There was significantdifference between the twogroups( P<0.05). After the triple therapy treatment group left vertebral artery, right vertebralartery, basilar artery blood flow velocity, blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation index improvedsignificantly better than the control group, a significant difference between the two groups( P<0.05). Long-term follow30 d, the treatment group 0 case of TIA or stroke occurred in the control group four cases occurred TIA, 1 case developedinto stroke incidence was 9.2%. There was significant difference between the two groups( 字2=4.627, P=0.031). Both
groups during the treatment of liver and kidney function did not change significantly after taking the drug. Treatment group1 patients had neutropenia,gastrointestinal adverse reactions occurred in 2 cases, nausea , abdominal distension, etc.,shall not affect the continued drug use, the control group had no other adverse reactions. Conclusion: Clopidogrel andBetahistine, Danshen injection can significantly improve the vertebral-basilar artery insufficiency caused by vertigo,adverse reactions rarely occur during treatment.
