Objectives : The clinical trial was designed to investigate the safety and effects of Taeeumjowui-tang(Taiyintiaowei-tang) extracts on the change of the weight, body compositions, serum in obese patients. Methods : This was a 12-weeks, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Patients with a body mass index of either greater than $30kg/m^2$ or between 27 and $30kg/m^2$ with controlled hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia were considered eligible. Participants of 41 obese patients were randomized either to Taeeumjowui-tang(Taiyintiaowei-tang)(23) or placebo(18). After 12 weeks of treatment, we measured anthropometric factors(weight, height, waist circumference, BMI(body mass index) etc.), abdominal fat area by CT(computed tomography)scanning, serum lipid(total cholesterol, tryglyceride, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol), blood lever of variety(AST, ALT, BUN, creatinine etc.). Adverse events also evaluated. Results : After 12 weeks of treatment mean weight, waist-circumference, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and score of KEAT-26 were significant changed in Taeeumjowui-tang(Taiyintiaowei-tang). There were no serious adverse events in either groups. Conclusions : There were limited in this study that is conducted within a short period of 12 weeks. but its weight and WC(waist circumference), WHR(waist hip ratio), total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and score of KEAT-26 loss effect was significant and it had few adverse events.
