Methods: 130 cases of breast cancer patients admitted to our hospital from September 2020 to September 2021 were randomly divided into control group and experimental group according to the computer method. There were 65 cases in each group, and the patients in the control group received routine chemotherapy and medication. The patients in the experimental group were treated with Chaishao Liujunzi Decoction on the basis of the control group. The curative effect, TCM symptom score before and after the intervention and myelosuppression status (platelet count, white blood cell count and hemoglobin concentration) of the two groups were compared. Results: compared with the effective rate of comprehensive treatment, 64 cases (98.46%) in the experimental group and 58 cases (89.23%) in the control group were comprehensively effective (P < 0.05). Before treatment, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). After treatment, the TCM waiting score of the experimental group was better than that of the control group (P<0.05). Before treatment, there was no significant difference in platelet count, leukocyte count and hemoglobin concentration between the two groups (P > 0.05). After treatment, the measurement results of various myelosuppression indexes in the experimental group were significantly better than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the experimental group on the 2nd day of chemotherapy was significantly lower than that in the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: the application of Chaishao Liujunzi Decoction in the clinical treatment of breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy can improve the patient's symptoms, and the curative effect is ideal. It is recommended to be popularized.展开更多
