Paragraph 3: Indications and key points of syndrome differentiation (200 words)
Applicable toPoor moodThe resulting symptoms include obstruction of objects in the throat, inability to cough and spit out, inability to swallow, fullness and tightness in the chest and hypochondrium, and white and greasy tongue coating. It needs to be differentiated from yin deficiency and laryngeal paralysis (dry throat and less phlegm). This warming and drying prescription should not be used in the latter. Beijing University of Chinese MedicineProfessor Wang Qingguopoint out that modern times are commonly used infunctional dyspepsia, mild anxiety with somatization symptoms, but organic diseases need to be ruled out. A typical case can be seen in "Yuemei Traditional Chinese Medicine Cases" in which a female patient suffered from qi stagnation and phlegm obstruction, and her symptoms were relieved after taking 3 doses of medicine.
Paragraph 4: Modern applications and precautions (200 words)
Clinically, it can be used additionally or subtractivelychronic pharyngitis(Add Platycodon),gastroesophageal reflux(Add coptis). Japanese Kampo research shows that it can reduce esophageal sensitivity (effectiveness rate is about 68%). However, the Pinellia ternata in the prescription is slightly toxic and needs to be prepared in a standardized way. Pregnant women and those with yin deficiency and dry cough should use it with caution. Suitable for daily useRose tea drinkSoothe the liver and relieve depression, avoid raw, cold and greasy food. Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese MedicineDirector Zhang ZhongdeIt is emphasized that emotional regulation is the key and this prescription should not be taken for a long time.
Paragraph 5: Summary and care suggestions (200 words)
Banxia Houpu Decoction embodies the traditional Chinese medicine"Treat different diseases with the same treatment"The concept is to target the mutual combination of phlegm and Qi in the pathogenesis rather than a single symptom. After short-term medication is used to relieve physical discomfort, attention should be paid to emotional counseling, such as Baduanjin, meditation, etc. Prescription research data suggest (see Table 1) that its mechanism of action is related to regulating the neuro-gastrointestinal axis, but it cannot replace psychological treatment. Quote from the Ming DynastyLi Zhongzi's "Must-Read for Medical Sects"Warning: "Those who make good use of medicine will not treat the existing disease but the non-disease." Patients are reminded to avoid over-reliance on medicines.
