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.
