Clinical Research Center of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Shanghai China ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To conduct a systematic evaluation on clinical drug safety of Lianhuaqingwen preparation. METHODS We retrieved Chinese Biomedical Literature Database CBM China Academic Journal Full-text Database CNKI Cochrane Library MEDLINE and Embase to collect clinical literature from January 2003 to May 2013 about randomized controlled trials RCTs on Lianhuaqingwen capsules and Lianhuaqingwen granules. RESULTS We included medical literature of a total of 40 RCTs with patients in the test group and cases in the control group. 63 cases 2. 4% in the test group versus % showed adverse reactions with regard to the incidence of adverse reactions in the test group and the control group the relative risk RR = % CI = Subgroup analysis of the adverse reactions in 24 RCTs revealed RR = % CI = subgroup analysis of the adverse reactions in digestive system revealed RR = % CI = suggestive of lower incidence of adverse reactions in Lianhuaqingwen preparation-treated group than in control group. CONCLUSION Gastrointestinal reaction is the common clinical adverse reactions of Lianhuaqingwen preparation and the incidence of adverse reactions was significantly lower in Lianhuaqingwen preparation-treated group than in control group in the treatment of different diseases.
