Summary

This study tests whether adding a traditional Chinese medicine powder called Modified Shenling Baizhu Powder to standard asthma inhalers can improve symptom control in people with allergic asthma. Researchers will enroll 400 adults aged 18 to 80 who have persistent asthma and a specific traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis. Participants will take either the herbal powder or a placebo twice daily for 8 weeks, alongside their usual inhaler, and be followed for 12 more weeks to track asthma control, flare-ups, and quality of life.
