ABSTRACT
In order to determine the curative effect of multiglycosidorum Tripterygii and prednisone for treatment of children with chronic refractory idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), a total of 28 patients had been treated with multiglycosidorum Tripterygii and prednisone. Multiglycosidorum Tripterygii was given at a dose of 1 mg/kg body weight per day and the prednisone was given at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg body weight per day for two consecutive months. Bone marrow examination and blood platelet associated immunoglobin G (PAIgG) measurement were performed during the treatment. The results showed that in 21 patients acquired effectiveness, of whom, according the common criteria, 9 patients achieved curative effective, 7 achieved significant effectiveness and 5 effective. 7 patients did not achieve effectiveness. There were no serious side effects associated with therapy. The number of proplatelets on bone marrow smears was increased and the titers of IgG to platelet were restored to normal range in patients achieving remission. In conclusion, combination of multiglycosidorum triptergii with prednisone is effective and safe for treatment of chronic refractory idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in children.
