The each symptom score in traditional Chinese medicine group was lower than that in chemotherapy group (P<0.05).Conclusion The efficacy of Yipi Rougan recipe combined with chemotherapy is not significant on patients with intermediated or advanced-staged primary liver cancer chemotherapy, but can significantly relieve symptoms and improve the quality of life of patients .
