Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect oflupatadine fumarate combined with Yupingfeng Granule on chronic urticaria. Methods A total of 104 patients with chronic urticaria who were treated in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical College from January 2021 to December 2021 were selected and divided into two groups by random number table method, with 40 patients in each group.The control group received lupatadine fumarate tablets, while the observation group received lupatadine fumarate tablets and Yupingfeng granules.The treatment effective rate and recurrence rate of the two groups were observed, and the serum interleukin (IL)-4, immunoglobulin E (IgE), IL-8, interferon-γ (INF-γ) and IL-17 levels, and assess for changes in symptoms. Results The effective rate of the observation group wassignificantly higher than control group (P<; 0.05), and the recurrence rate was lower than control group (P<; 0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum IL-4, IgE, IL-8 and IL-17 in the two groups were significantly decreased (P<; 0.05), the level of INF-γ was increased (P<; 0.05). And the levels of serum IL-4, IgE, IL-8 and IL-17 in the observation group were significantly lower than thosein the control group (P<; 0.05), the levels of serum INF-γ were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<; 0.05). Before treatment, there were no significant differences in the number of wheals, itching degree, duration of wheals, the largest diameter of wheals and the number of daily wheals attacks between the two groups (P>; 0.05). After treatment, the number of wheals, itching degree, duration of wheals, the largest diameter of wheals and the number of daily wheals attacks were significantly reduced between the two group (P<; 0.05). And the number of wheals, itching degree, duration of wheals, the largest diameter of wheals and the number of daily wheals attacks in the observation group were significantly reduced (P<; 0.05). Conclusion Lupatadine fumarate combined with Yupingfeng granule has significant curative effect on chronic urticaria, which is worth popularizing.
