Abstract | OBJECTIVE: METHODS: Thirty-nine patients were divided into the flunarizine group (n=19) and the QDD group (n=20) treated with respective medicine on the base of routine treatment with Chinese and Western medicine. The clinical efficacy and recurrent rate were observed and compared. RESULTS: Compared with those in the flunarizine group, clinical curative effect was better, recurrent rate lower, symptom score higher, hemorheological parameters and transcranial doppler indexes were improved more significant in the QDD group (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: QDD had obvious therapeutic effect on IBVA. Improvement of microcirculation and reduction of blood viscosity may be one of the therapeutical mechanisms.
