Background: Therapeutics of urticaria in Chinese outpatients remain to be illustrated.Objectives: To investigate clinical treatment of outpatients with urticaria, and provide real-world evidence for selection of medication regimens.Methods: In this hospital-based multicenter study, urticaria outpatients filled in a questionnaire at initial visit and were followed-up (once per week, for 4 weeks).Results: We recruited 1715 urticaria outpatients and 647 completed 4 week’s follow-up. Their total UAS7 was reduced (27.44 at baseline, 16.87 in 1 week, 12.39 in 2 weeks, 7.21 in 3 weeks, 4.2 in 4 weeks). 71.8% patients recovered from urticaria (therapy was highly effective in 11%, whereas effective in 14.2%). The second-generation H1 antihistamines (sgAHs) (at conventional dose) were the most commonly prescribed drugs, with ebastine, levocetirizine and olopatadine being the leading ones (41.1%, 36.2%, and 16%, respectively). Combinations of several antihistamines (649 cases, 37.8%) at conventional dose were far more common than a single drug at escalated dose (59 cases, 3.4%). The combination of ebastine with levocetirizine was the most frequent options (18.25%, 313 cases), followed by combination of ebastine with compound glycyrrhizin (18.2%, 312 cases). The usage rates of tripterygium glycoside (19.6%), hydroxychloroquine (17.2%) and system application glucocorticoids (5.5%) in angioedema were much higher than in symptomatic dermographism and chronic spontaneous urticaria.Conclusions: This study identifies curative therapy for Chinese outpatients with urticaria. The sgAHs, especially ebastine, are the most commonly prescribed drugs. Olopatadine has fast-acting and curative effects. Compound glycyrrhizin holds potential as a versatile collaborator. Combinations of several antihistamines at conventional dose is common.
