The database included the ChianInfo (1978—2015), the Superstar database (1955—2017), the CBM(1985—2017), CNKI(1984—2017), PubMed(1966—2017). Accordingto Meta analysis, the RevMan 5.2 software was used to recover and analyze the literatures, and make the assessment of the integration of TCM and westem medicine in treating H Type Hypertension. Results: In the study, 12 trials were included. The total number of cases is 1139. The Meta analysis results showed that: Compared with western medicine the integration of TCM and western medicine would improve the antihypertensive efficacy [OR=0.39, 95%CI (0.25, 0.59), Z=4.38(P< 0.0001)], lower Hcy levels [WMD=-1.93, 95%CI (-2.27, 0.21), Z=4.38 (P< 0.0001)]. Conclusion: The combination therapy can effectively reduce Hcy levels, control blood pressure, better than Western medicine.
