A comparison study of metformin only therapy and metformin combined with Chinese medicine jianyutangkang therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes: A randomized placebo-controlled double-blind study

And thereby provides a basis for a novel, effective, and safe approach, to treat type 2 diabetic patients.
