Methods 60 tinnitus patients caused by liver fire treated in our hospital from May 2015 to February 2017 were selected for the study and randomly divided into the observation group and the control group, with 30 cases in each group. The two groups were given conventional western medicine and Yiqi Congming pills combined with western medicine respectively. The effective rates of treatment, the speech pure-tone average (PTA), speech recognition threshold (SRT) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were compared between the two groups, and the adverse reactions were observed. Results The effective rate of the observation group was 93.33％, which was higher than that of the control group with 73.33％ (P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of PTA, SRT the scores of PSQI were significantly lower in the observation group than those in the control group (P<0.05). There were no differences in the incidence rates of adverse reactions between the two groups.
