Objective: To observe the clinical effects of Jin’s three-needle plus Xiang Ju Capsules for allergic rhinitis (AR).

Methods: Fifty patients with AR were randomly divided into an acupuncture-medication group and a medication group by the random digital table, 25 cases in each group. The acupuncture-medication group was treated with dorsal three-needle and nasal three-needle in Jin’s three-needle therapy, once every day, plus oral administration of Xiang Ju Capsules, 4 pills each time, and three times per day. The medication group was only treated with oral administration of Xiang Ju Capsules, 4 pills each time, and three times per day. For both groups, 10-day treatment constituted a course. The therapeutic effects were observed after continuous 2 courses. The symptoms and signs are scored before and after treatment, and the therapeutic effects were assessed based upon the changes of the patient’s symptoms and signs.

Results: After treatment, the total effective rate was 96.0% in the acupuncture-medication group and 72.0% in the medication group. The difference in the total effective rate between the two groups was statistically significant (P＜0.05).

Conclusion: The therapeutic effect was remarkable in treating AR of Jin’s three-needle plus Xiang Ju Capsules, better than oral administration of Xiang Ju Capsules alone.
