Abstract： Objective： To observe the clinical effect of point penetration with She medicine Huatan Prescription at the ebb and flow of midnight and midday for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung type. Methods： A total of 78 CAP patients of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung type were divided into the control group and the trial group，with 39 cases in each group，using a random number table method. The control group was treated with conventional western medicine for symptomatic treatment，and the trial group was treated with point penetration with She medicine Huatan Prescription at the ebb and flow of midnight and midday on the basis of the treatment of the control group. Compared the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores， clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS)， neutrophil count (N)， C-reactive protein (CRP)， and procalcitonin (PCT) levels between the two groups before and after treatment. Compared the clinical efficacy and incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups. Results：During the research process，one case fell out of the trial group and two cases fell out of the control group. Finally， 38 cases were included in the trial group and 37 cases were included in the control group. After treatment，the total effective rate was 92.11% in the trial group，which was higher than that of 81.08% in the control group (P＜0.05). After treatment，the TCM syndrome scores， CPIS scores， and levels of N， CRP， and PCT in both groups were declined when compared with those before treatment (P＜0.05)，and the TCM syndrome score，CPIS score，and levels of N，CRP，and PCT in the trial group were lower than those in the control group (P＜0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P＞0.05). Conclusion：Point penetration with She medicine Huatan Prescription at the ebb and flow of midnight and midday is effective in treating CAP of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung type， which can reduce lung infection and inflammatory responses in patients，and has high safety.
