Results:
The effective rate of treating vomiting due to chemotherapy with DDP and without DDP in the test group was 92.7% and 93.5% respectively, and was higher than that in the control group 87.8% and 87.1%, the difference was insignificant statistically (P > 0.05).
Conclusions:
The prescription SIOD could prevent and treat effectively chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting without any toxic and side effects, and is inexpensive with high efficacy for clinical use.
