Recently, a proprietary Chinese medicine in the mainland - Lianhua Qing plague capsule has become the focus of public opinion, for a time, #fake medicine ##Chinese medicine ## Lianhua Qing plague useless ### miracle drug # and other hot discussions have been everywhere.
Today, Xiaobian leads everyone to unveil the mystery of Lianhua Qing plague.
The past and present lives of Lianhua Qing plague
Lianhua Qingxiao capsule is a compound preparation of traditional Chinese medicine developed by Ling Pharmaceutical Industry during the "SARS" period in 2003, which is composed of three famous ancient formulas plus and minus, namely from the Ma Xing Shi Gan Tang in Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" in the Han Dynasty, the Dayuan Drink in wu Youke's "Theory of Plague" in the Ming Dynasty and the silver warp in wu Jutong's "Identification of Wen Disease Strips" in the Qing Dynasty, and the main ingredients of Lianhua Qingbi capsules are forsythia, rhubarb, honeysuckle, panlan root, rhodiola rosea, houttuynia cordata, etc.
Xiaobian selected several medicinal ingredients of Lianhua Qing plague capsules, and we looked at its efficacy:
The combination of various drugs, let the internal evil go out, the whole party has the effect of clearing the plague and detoxification, publicizing the lungs and releasing heat, the treatment of influenza is a hot poison attack lung evidence, the symptoms are: fever or high fever, cold, muscle soreness, nasal congestion and runny nose, cough, headache, dry throat and sore throat, red tongue, yellowish or yellow greasy.
Speaking of which, do you think that the drug ingredients mentioned above look good like the same idea as Xiaobian? So can it prevent or treat COVID-19?
Even flowers clear plague and new crown
The School of Pharmacy of Hubei University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Engineering Technology Research Center of Traditional Chinese Medicine Health Food of Hubei Province conduct systematic and holistic analysis of the chemical composition, core targets and sexual taste of 6 kinds of compound preparations (wet septic formula, lung detoxification soup, Xuan lung septic poison formula, Jinhua Qinggan granules, Lianhua Qing plague capsules, and hebijing injection) through network pharmacology and molecular docking, according to the "diagnosis and treatment plan for pneumonia infected by the new coronavirus infection (trial 7th edition)", through network pharmacology and molecular docking, From the perspective of synergistic effect of multi-component-multi-target-multi-pathway, the pharmacological mechanism of compound is elaborated.
Compound and target information of Lianhua Qing plague capsules
Venn intersection of 6 compound targets and disease targets
Studies have shown that Lianhua Qingpeng capsules can reduce the occurrence of mild and ordinary new crown to severe disease, shorten the nucleic acid negative time and fever time of infected patients, and significantly alleviate clinical symptoms, and use Lianhua Qingxiao capsules alone to treat mild and ordinary patients with an effective rate of 100%; Lianhua Qingxiao capsules combined with Abidole effectively shorten the treatment time and hospitalization time of patients.
The therapeutic index of SARS virus was verified by in vitro experiments to be 40.33, and animal experiments confirmed that it had improved immune function and had sputum and anti-inflammatory effects[1]; even the antiviral effect of Huaqing plague capsules had long been confirmed [2].
The "three drugs and three parties" have the overall role of reducing fever symptoms, reducing hormone dosage and alleviating complications, etc., while improving nausea, vomiting, constipation symptoms, fever reduction, controlling disease progression, target organ protection and maintenance of cardiopulmonary and kidney function, etc. In addition, compared with Western medicine, it is manifested by shortening the disappearance of clinical symptoms and reducing the average length of hospital stay, while reducing the probability of ordinary type conversion to critical illness and enhancing immunity.
In general, although Lianhua Qingpeng is not a "miracle drug", it has played a "icing on the cake" role in the prevention and treatment of the new crown, which is used for the relief of the symptoms of the new crown.
Boycotting Chinese medicine is often the focus of public opinion, some Western medicine practitioners think that Chinese medicine is not credible, and some Chinese medicine doctors think that the side effects of Western medicine treatment methods and drugs are large, let's not talk about which is right and wrong.
At least in the topic we're talking about today
The role of Traditional Chinese medicine is worthy of recognition
China's five-thousand-year cultural history, from the Western Han Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, China has at least 321 large-scale plagues, the history of the evidence, in the absence of Western medicine support in the era, Chinese medicine has never escaped, forge ahead.
In the 1950s, Epidemic Japanese encephalitis (hereinafter referred to as Japanese encephalitis) occurred in Shijiazhuang and Beijing successively.
First of all, when Shijiazhuang broke out of Japanese encephalitis and Western medicine was helpless, the government invited an old Chinese medicine doctor, who according to the summer temperature climate, used white tiger soup to see great effects.
Later, Beijing also began to popularize Japanese encephalitis, Western medicine is still helpless, still the old Chinese medicine doctor shot, starting from the local climate humidity, switched to white tiger soup plus Cangshu soup, almond talc soup, sanren soup and other traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, with aromatic wet and Tongyang Li wet Chinese medicine ideas for treatment, so that the epidemic was quickly controlled.
In that year, a total of 50 cases of Japanese encephalitis patients were treated in Beijing Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, of which 45 cases were cured and 5 cases died, and the cure rate reached 90%, which once again proved the reliability of the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of Japanese encephalitis [3].
In the struggle against the plague for thousands of years, TCM has accumulated rich experience in prevention and treatment, and is a treasure of traditional Chinese culture. Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, Chinese medicine has been attacked by various cultural, scientific and technological factors and other external factors for thousands of years, and is still completely preserved, maintaining the health of the world.
We must adhere to the basic principle of "integrated traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine", learn the modernization and science and technology of Western medicine, and also affirm the clinical value of traditional Chinese medicine, resist "one size fits all", take its essence, and remove its dross, which is the only correct way.
