Patients in the treatment group received Sheng-qi-zhuang-yang Decoction combined with SIT while patients in the control group received SIT alone. Asthma symptom scores, respiratory function and related adverse events were compared before and after treatment, between groups. Results The desensitization treatment functions was ahead of time than expected in both groups. There is no significant difference between groups in terms of respiratory function and adverse effects.
