- Original description
This 24-week prospective study (12-week intervention + 12-week follow-up) is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of YishenShujin Decoction, a clinically established herbal prescription, in patients with fibromyalgia (FM).
