Objective To explore the change of particles of Shuanghuanglian Injection (SHLI) admixed with different infusion solutions, and provide a reference for selecting rational menstruum.
Methods A comprehensive literature search was executed to collect all the studies on the compatibility of SHLI with different infusion solutions. The reporting quality of the included studies was assessed; particles-related data were extracted and analyzed systematically.
Results A total of 338 studies were identified, and 24 studies were included after screening. The quality of the included studies were poor and had heterogeneous outcomes. Generally, the particles of mixture increased dramatically, and there were significant differences among different pharmaceuticals, drug batches and infusion solutions. The pH of solvent had a greater impact on the particles, and the concentration and storage time of prepared liquor were other important factors. The particles of SHLI admixed with Normal Saline were less than 5%, 10% glucose injection and other solvents.
Conclusion The particles of SHLI admixed with Normal Saline are the fewest, and commonly can be the preferred solvent. Factors on rational drug use are worthy of further studies; and more attention is needed for the scientificalness of study design.
