To evaluate the improvement of symptoms in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease combined with depression (hepatic and gastric depression-heat type) by Zuojin Wan combined with vornodine fumarate regimen as a control, and to compare the adherence to the medication and the adverse reactions of the patients between the two groups.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common digestive disorder, and in recent years studies have shown an increasing incidence of comorbid depression in patients with GERD. The treatment of gastric acid inhibition and mucosal protection alone is not effective for patients with reflux combined with depression, and the additional administration of neuromodulatory drugs will increase the incidence of adverse reactions, so the combination of traditional Chinese medicine may be one of the effective ways to solve the above problems. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of Zuojin Wan combined with vunorasan fumarate with that of vunorasan fumarate alone.
