Pharmaceutical compositions for treating immunological disorders and
the preparing method of the same are disclosed, which include alcohol extracts
of Radix Dioscorea, Rhizoma Alismatis, Poria cocos (schw) Wolf, and Scutellaria
Baicalensis. The compositions are manufactured by novel procedures consisting
of decocting using specific concentration ranges of alcohol, filtering, regulating
pH value, purifying, concentrating, proportionally mixing, and making a granule
powder from lyophilized extract. This invention used both in vitro and in vivo
assays to evaluate therapeutic effects of specific combination of herbal plant
extracts. The combination of herbal extracts has been able to maximize the anti-inflammatory
activity and regulate the secretion of cytokines such as eotaxin and IL-4. When
the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention is used for asthma, it
can relieve coughs, resist airway allergic inflammation reactions, improve the
pulmonary functions, reduce allergen specific IgE in bloods, stabilize elasmatoblasts,
