Methods :
In this study, ten chronic pulmonary disease patients were treated with Jungchunghwadam-tang. Peak expiratory flow were obtained by peak flow meter.
Result:
After the treatment, peak expiratory flow was increased significantly compared with before treatment. Percentage of predict peak expiratory flow was also increased significantly compared with before treatment.
Conclusion:
