This study was aimed to observe influence on clinical symptoms of Qing-Fei Pei-Yuan Wei-Wan (QFPY-WW) for pulmonary infection HIV/AIDS cases with the syndrome of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung. A total of 141 pulmonary infection HIV/AIDS cases with the syndrome of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung were randomly divided into the treatment group (94 cases) and the control group (47 cases). The treatment group was given basic western medication combined with QFPYWW. The control group was given basic western medication. After 4 weeks treat-ment, observation was made on changes of main symptoms. The results showed that on the 28th day, compared with the control group, there was improvement on symptoms such as cough, breathing and chest tightness (P< 0.05). Com-parison on coughing up phlegm degree showed that the treatment group was significantly better than the control group (P< 0.05). On the 7th day treatment, the treatment group had better effect on lowering body temperature than the control group (P< 0.05).
