Exclusion Criteria:

• Other conditions or mental disorders which according to the judgement of researchers that restrict evaluation of mental function or render outcomes or follow-up unlikely to be assessed;
• Woman with pregnancy, lactation, or woman who wants to be pregnant in recent;
• Patient who is allergic to the study drug or has severe allergic constitution;
• Patient with yellow thick slimy tongue coating;
• Patient who has been participated in other drug or device clinical trials in recent 3 months.

• Diagnosis of stable angina pectoris of coronary artery disease
• Age ≥ 35 and ≤ 80 years
• Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) Classification of Angina Pectoris classⅠ-Ⅲ
• Patient or legally authorized representative has signed informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Acute coronary syndrome or unstable angina pectoris in the prior 3 months, or other heart diseases (e.g. cardiomyopathy, pericardial disease);
• Severe cardiopulmonary insufficiency (congestive heart failure NYHA class IV, severe abnormal pulmonary function), or severe arrhythmias (e.g. rapid atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia);
• Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure ≥ 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mmHg), or renal or hepatic insufficiency (hepatic insufficiency is defined as an alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) value that is 1.5 times the upper limit of normal, renal insufficiency is defined as a serum creatinine concentration value that is over the upper limit of normal);
• Other conditions or mental disorders which according to the judgement of researchers that restrict evaluation of mental function or render outcomes or follow-up unlikely to be assessed;

• Age ≥ 35 and ≤ 80 years
• Patient or legally authorized representative has signed informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure ≥ 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mmHg), or renal or hepatic insufficiency (hepatic insufficiency is defined as an alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) value that is 1.5 times the upper limit of normal, renal insufficiency is defined as a serum creatinine concentration value that is over the upper limit of normal);
• Patient with spinal cord injury, cervical or lumbar vertebra disease (nerve root compression, spinal stenosis, cervical or lumbar vertebra degenerative disease), or sequelae of cerebrovascular disease, neuromuscular junction or muscular disease;
• Neuropathies caused by other diseases (e.g. Guillain-Barre syndrome, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), VitB deficiency, hypothyroidism, alcoholism, severe arteriovenous vasculopathy such as venous embolism, lymphangitis);
• Other conditions or mental disorders which according to the judgement of researchers that restrict evaluation of mental function or render outcomes or follow-up unlikely to be assessed;
• Woman with pregnancy, lactation, or woman who wants to be pregnant in recent;
• Patient who is allergic to the study drug or has severe allergic constitution;
• Patient with yellow thick slimy tongue coating;
