Objective:To probe into TCM recipe and syndrome of dimethylnitrosamine（DMN）-induced hepatic fibrosis of the rat.Methods:DMN rat hapetic fibrosis model was prepared by intraperitoneal injection of DMN

and they were respectively treated with 5 classical recipes with difference functions for 2 weeks.Changes of pathology of the hepatic tissue

hydroxyproline（Hyp） content and hapetic function were investigated.Results:4 weeks after modeling

typical micronodular cirrhosis formed

and 6 weeks after modeling

the hepatic injury in the model group had some remission as compared with that at 4 weeks.Compared with the model group at 6 weeks

pathologic changes of the hepatic tissue

Hyp content and hepatic function improved significantly（P<0.05 or P<0.01） in the Inchenhao Decoction group;pathologic changes of the hepatic tissue and Hyp content in the Huangqi Decoction group improved significantly（P<0.05 or P<0.01）.Conclusion:Inchenhao Decoction and Huangqi Decoction can effectively reverse DMN-induced hepatic fibrosis of rats;damp-heat

stagnation of heat in the interior with qi-deficiency are main TCM syndromes of DMN hepatic fibrosis rat at the formative stage.
