Objective: To understand the clinical effectiveness and safety of Shufeng Jiedu Capsules combined with umifenovir (Arbidol) in the treatment of common-type COVID-19.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was used to analyze the case data of 200 inpatients diagnosed with common-type COVID-19 at Wuhan Hospital. Participants were divided into a control group and an experimental group. The control group was treated with Arbidol hydrochloride capsules while the experimental group was treated with combination Arbidol hydrochloride capsules and Shufeng Jiedu Capsules (SFJDC) for 14 days.
Results: Defervescence was achieved more rapidly in the experimental group ( < 0.05). The white blood cell count and the lymphocyte percentage in the experimental group were higher than that of the control group ( < 0.05). CRP and IL-6 levels in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( < 0.05). The proportion of chest CT studies showing resolution of pneumonia in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( < 0.05).
Conclusions: A treatment regimen of Shufeng Jiedu Capsules combined with Arbidol to treat common-type COVID-19, combining traditional Chinese and western allopathic medicine, improves time to recovery, has better clinical effectiveness, and is safe.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore how Shufeng Jiedu Capsule (SFJD) treats bacterial pneumonia through network pharmacology and experimental methods.
- Researchers found 172 active components in SFJD and built a network connecting these components with target genes related to bacterial pneumonia, highlighting its effects on the IL-17 and JAK/STAT signaling pathways.
- SFJD showed promising results by reducing mortality in mouse models of pneumonia and decreasing harmful inflammatory markers, indicating its potential as a treatment for bacterial pneumonia.*

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Shuangdan Jiedu Decoction (SJD) is a formula composed of six Chinese herbs with heat-removing and detoxifying, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects, which is clinically used in the therapy of various inflammatory diseases of the lungs including COVID-19, but the therapeutic material basis of its action as well as its molecular mechanism are still unclear.
Aim Of The Study: The study attempted to determine the therapeutic effect of SJD on LPS-induced acute lung injury (ALI), as well as to investigate its mechanism of action and assess its therapeutic potential for the cure of inflammation-related diseases in the clinical setting.
Materials And Methods: We established an ALI model by tracheal drip LPS, and after the administration of SJD, we collected the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissues of mice and examined the expression of inflammatory factors in them.

Background: Death caused by respiratory tract infection is one of the leading causes of death in the world today. Shufeng Jiedu Capsule (SFJDC) is a traditional Chinese medicine that has been widely used clinically for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), H1N1 influenza virus pneumonia and other diseases. Its pharmacological effect is to inhibit inflammation and improve the body's ability to clear viruses.
