Methods: The randomized contmlled trials were collected via searching the internet. The literatures were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. All the assignments were performed by two researchers. If there was disagreement between the two researchers, we would ask evidence based medicine expert for advice, to get an optimal result. 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.
