Traditional Chinese Medicine Effectively Treats Eczema
MedicalNewsToday.com, March 14, 2009. New research where
traditional Chinese medicine was found to safely and effectively treat
patients with persistent atopic dermatitis - or eczema, as it's commonly
known - could lead more physicians to prescribe complementary
and
alternative medicine (CAM) to treat the allergic condition.
In the study presented at the 2009 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of
Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI), researchers at
Mount Sinai Hospital in
New York analyzed 14 patients with persistent atopic dermatitis who received
traditional Chinese medicine at
Ming Qi Natural Health Center in Manhattan
between August 2006 and May 2008. The eczema treatments consisted of Erka
Shizheng
Herbal Tea, a bath additive, creams and acupuncture.
The study authors utilized two measures: the SCORAD index to gauge atopic
dermatitis severity and the Dermatology Life Quality Index
(DLQI) to
calculate impairment to life quality.
Baseline median scores for SCORAD and DLQI were 89 and 17, respectively.
After a median of eight months treatment, the median
scores fell to 11 for SCORAD and 1 for DLQI.
In all but one patient, SCORAD measures decreased between 60 to 90% after
3.3 months of treatment. More than 50% improvement in
DLQI scores was
documented in all but one patient after 2.4 months of treatment.
Patients also reported a reduction in the use of steroids, antibiotics and
antihistamines within 3 months of being treated with traditional
Chinese
medicine. There were no abnormalities of liver and kidney function observed.
While the researchers concluded that the use of traditional Chinese medicine
is safe and effective for patients with persistent a topic
dermatitis,
especially those with a severe case and significant life quality impairment,
it is still recommended to speak with a physician before
taking any
complementary or alternative medicines.
The AAAAI represents allergists, asthma specialists, clinical immunologists,
allied health professionals and others with a special interest in
the
research and treatment of allergic disease. Established in 1943, the AAAAI
has more than 6,500 members in the United States,
Canada and 60 other
countries.
