Abstract

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of LiangXueHuoXueTang (LXHXT ) decoction in the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris. Methods Lesions and serum level of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) of patients with psoriasis were compared before and after treatment with LXHXT decoction. Results The total effective rate of LXHXT was 86. 3 %, no significant difference as compared with that of control group. Serum level of TNF-α of patients improved significantly after treatment. Conclusion Psoria- sis vulgaris responds to LXHXT decoction, the mechanism of Which seems to be mediated by TNF-α.
