ABSTRACT
This paper reviews the clinical research literature of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in recent years. It is believed that TCM has curative effect in the treatment of acute exacerbation or remission of COPD. The treatment principle for acute stage of COPD includes phlegm, heat and dampness, and the chronic stage lung, spleen and kidney. TCM can improve the clinical symptoms and quality of life, with various treatments and less adverse reactions. However, there are some limitations such as small sample size, lack of in-depth discussion on the mechanism of trwatment, lack of standardized syndrome differentiation and outcomes evaluation standards.
