Abstract: | AIM: To assess efficacy of grandaxine in correction of anxiety syndrome and vegetative dysfunction in patients with gastrointestinal diseases. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The trial included 59 patients with functional gastrointestinal, emotional and vegetative disorders who failed standard therapy. 43 patients of the test group received standard therapy in combination with grandaxine. RESULTS: Anxiety (Spilberg-Khanin scale), vegetative dysfunction (Vein scale) reduced in 90% of the patients of the test group more significantly than in the control group. Intestinal passage in patients with irritable colon syndrome improved also. CONCLUSION: A pronounced role of psychovegetative disorders was confirmed in development of functional gastrointestinal disorders. Grandaxine proved efficient in correction of such disorders irrespective of location of the pathology and prevalent tonicity of the autonomic nervous system. |
