<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To objectively evaluate the clinical therapeutic effect of tongfengkang (TFK) in treating acute gouty arthritis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Adopting randomized single blinded controlled trial, the 40 patients were equally divided into two groups. The tested group was treated with TFK, the control group was treated with indomethacin and allopurinol, the therapeutic course for both groups was 10 days.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The clinical cure rate in the tested group and the control group was 30% and 35% respectively, and the total effective rate 90% and 95% respectively, with no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). The scores of blood uric acid and symptom significantly lowered in both groups after treatment (P < 0.01), but showed no significant difference between them (P > 0.05). Adverse reaction to the treatment was shown in 3 patients in the control group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The therapeutic effect of TFK is similar to that of indomethacin plus allopurinol but with less adverse reaction, it is an effective and safe remedy for treatment of acute gouty arthritis, and worthy for further studying and developing.</p>
