Abstract

Methods: The 42 cases of the treatment group were orally adiministered Yiweikang Capsule; while the other 25 cases in the control group were orally given Wenweishu Capsule. Both the groups were observed for 2 months.

Results: The total effective rate in the treatment group was obviously higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05), with statistical significance shown by the TCM symptom score, gastroscopic examination and the HP test (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).
