In this method, effects of meridians, acupoints and drugs are organically combined, with obviously higher total therapeutic effect compared with routine acupuncture and moxibustion, intermuscular injection or intravenous injection. In this paper, the total therapeutic effects of acupoint-injection, high effectiveness of drugs and integrated action of acupoint and drug were discussed mainly and it is considered that the basic reason of acupoint-injection producing the high effect of drug is due to meridians and acupoints integrating some pharmacological actions of drugs.
