    Abstract:
    This study systematically combed the existing evidence of Houyanqing Oral Liquid in the treatment of acute pharyngitis from the "6+1" dimensions of safety, effectiveness, economy, innovation, suitability, accessibility, and characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) and carried out qualitative and quantitative analysis of the data from each dimension. The multi-criteria decision analysis(MCDA) model and CSC v2.0 were used to evaluate the clinical value of this drug, so as to provide evidence for the selection of essential drugs in the department of otolaryngology and for medical and health decision-making. The dimensions are graded A, B, C, or D. The adverse reactions of Houyanqing Oral Liquid in the treatment of acute pharyngitis were mainly manifested as abdominal pain, diarrhea, rash, etc., which were relieved after drug withdrawal. In terms of safety, it was considered that Houyanqing Oral Liquid had controllable risk and high safety, which was rated as grade B. Compared with ribavirin aerosol alone, Houyanqing Oral Liquid combined with ribavirin aerosol can significantly improve the total response rate, shorten the time to abatement of fever and di-sappearance of throat pain and mucosal congestion, and alleviate mucosal congestion and cough with sputum. With medium-quality evidence, the effectiveness was rated as grade B. Compared with ribavirin aerosol alone, Houyanqing Oral Liquid combined with ribavirin aerosol had cost-effectiveness advantages in the treatment of acute pharyngitis, and its economy was rated as grade C with the evidence of general quality. For acute pharyngitis, Houyanqing Oral Liquid can shorten the disease course and obviously relieve sore throat. Moreover, it can be used for the treatment of radioactive pharyngitis and oral ulcer, and thus its innovation was rated as grade B. With convenient and simple administration and standard and complete drug information, the suitability of this drug was rated as grade B. Houyanqing Oral Liquid is derived from the folk prescription in Hunan province and has been subjected to real-world studies, and thus the TCM characteristics was rated as grade B. According to the ratings of all the dimensions, the comprehensive value of Houyanqing Oral Liquid in the clinical treatment of acute pharyngitis was determined as grade B, with sufficient evidence and clear results.
