Abstract:
This paper reviewed the literatures of TCM treating diabetes mellitus and pulmonary tuberculosis from two aspects, Chinese patent medicine and TCM decoctions, which showed that TCM therapy can control blood sugar levels, improve clinical symptoms such as cough, expectoration and wheezing, promote pulmonary tuberculosis lesion absorption, cavity closure and sputum vaginal discharge, and improve patients' quality of life.
