Mok○1,2, Li Ya-lan1, Cai Ji-ye3 超激光联合芬太尼透皮贴剂治疗老年带状疱疹合并糖尿病***☆○ Abstract BACKGROUND:The main symptoms of herpes zoster (HZ) manifest as pain and skin eruption and the pain, when treated inadequately, may proceed to become post herpetic neuralgia (PHN) which has progressively increasing incidence with age. DESIGN: Randomized controlled observation. SETTING: The First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University. PARTICIPANTS: Thirty (14 males and 16 females) elderly patients of age 62-83 years with concurrent herpes zoster (duration 6-14 days) and diabetes who had received the conventional dermatological and medication treatment but still had persistent pain were selected form the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University from 2003 to 2006. All elderly patients were randomly divided into 3 groups with 10 in each group. RESULTS: Thirty patients were all involved in the final analysis. VAS scores of all three groups were significantly decreased after 15-day treatment (P < 0.05); after 3-day treatment, VAS scores of DR group (2.35±1.43) and SL+DR group (2.41±1.54) were significantly lower than their respective baselines and that of the SL group (7.00±0.82) (P < 0.05) which showed no significant change from the baseline value. SL+DR group showed significantly higher excellent rating than that of the SL group and DR group (80%, 60%, 70%, P < 0.05) at the end of the 15-day treatment. At 7th days after treatment, VAS scores of SL group (3.01±1.20) and SL+DR group (2.41±1.54) were still significantly lower than that of DR group (6.70±0.67) (P < 0.05) which had returned to the pretreatment level. No serious adverse effects such as respiratory depression were observed in any of the patients. Mild side effects such as dizziness, nausea and vomiting, constipation were observed in the DR and SL+DR groups which usually subsided after a week. CONCLUSION: Combined therapy of SL and DR shows a better pain relief in the elderly patients with herpes zoster and diabetes without significant adverse effects. It provides the advantage of fast onset of effect with the Durogesic patch and the long-term effect of Super Lizer. 1Department of Anesthesiology, First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, Guangdong Province, China; 2Pain Center, the University of Southern California, California, USA; 3Life Science and Technology College, Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, Guangdong Province, China Wang Xiao-ping☆, Doctor, Associate chief physician, Department of Anesthesiology, First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, Guangdong Province, China Correspondence to: Cai Ji-ye, Life Science and Technology College, Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, Guangdong Province, China Supported by: the National Natural Science Foundation of China, No. 60578025*; Medical Science and Technology Foundation of Guangzhou Province, No.A2006349*; Technology Plan Foundation of Guangzhou Province, No.2006B20401022* Received:2007-02-01 Wang XP, Mok MS, Li YL, Cai JY.Combined therapy of Super Lizer and Durogesic patch in elderly patients with herpes zoster and diabetes mellitus.Zhongguo Zuzhi Gongcheng Yanjiu yu Linchuang Kangfu 2007;11(13):2589-2592 [www.zglckf.com/
