Abstract

Ich Tri Vuong capsule components are Ginkgo biloba, Radix Salviae miltiorrhi zae, Radix Astragali membranacei and Radix Angelicae sinensis. The studies designed to accessing effect of Ich Tri Vuong capsule on Total antioxidant status (TAS), Superoxid dismustase (SOD) and Malondialdehyde (MDA) in blood on carotid atherosclerosis patients with low-grade carotid stenosis. The randomized clinical trial studied 60 carotid atherosclerosis patients, divided into two groups. Ich Tri Vuong group included 30 patients taking 4 pills of Ich tri vuong per day for 8 weeks. Atorvastatin group included 30 patients taking atorvastatin at 10 mg/day for 8 weeks. Results suggested that Ich Tri Vuong had the effect of increasing TAS serum level (0.15 ± 0.23 mmol/L), decreasing activity of SOD in red blood cells level (-133.62 ± 251.20 U/gHb), suppressing the increase of the MDA serum level.
