METHODS

Sixty-eight primary PE patients were randomized to a control (n=32) and an experimental group (n=36), the former treated with Yimusake 1 tablet (50 mg) pre day, and the latter with 1 tablet of trazodone hydrochloride (50 mg) pre day in addition, both given orally after supper and for 4 weeks, followed by observation of the therapeutic effects.

RESULTS

Eighteen cases (56.25%) responded in the control and 25 (69.44% ) in the experimental group, with statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05).

CONCLUSION

Yimusake combined with trazodone hydrochloride is highly efficacious for primary PE.
