    ¡¾Abstract¡¿ AIM: To evaluate the therapeutic effects of Niaodukang Jianji in treating chronic renal failure (CRF) and compare them with those of Shenan. METHODS: Patients with CRF were randomly divided into the treatment group and the control group. In the treatment group, patients orally took 20 ml Niaodukang 3 times a day while in the control group, patients were given an injection of 250 ml Shenan once a day. Patients in both groups routinely took dipyridamole, sodium bicarbonate and calcium carbonate. RESULTS: Niaodukang could relieve clinical symptoms, reduce Scr and Urea, increase Hb and CO2CP. The effects were obviously better than those of Shenan. CONCLUSION: Niaodukang can improve the patients¬ð immune function, inhibit metabolism and protect residual nephrons, thus effectively delaying CRF process. ......
