Proprietary Chinese medicine is one of the most commonly exposed drugs, although pharmacists have always advised everyone that proprietary Chinese medicines should not be bought and abused by themselves, because you may not be able to judge your own diseases and symptoms accurately, and it is more secure to use them under the guidance of a doctor. But many people are still reluctant to go to the hospital, hoping that they can solve some simple diseases at home.
Today, Huang Yaoshi talked about several proprietary Chinese medicines that are often used incorrectly by everyone, and if you have also made these mistakes, you can quietly change them.
A partial collection of proprietary Chinese medicines written by Huang Yaoshi
1, misuse one: regardless of the wind and cold wind and heat, cold medicine will eat lianhua qing plague
Some people only take one medicine regardless of what kind of cold, such as Lianhua Qing plague, or silver warp detoxification tablets, or banlan root punches. But taking the medicine, it does not work, why is this? Cold medicine, if you do not distinguish between the wind cold, wind heat, wind cold and wet and other types, blind use, it is likely to make your cold repeated, it is always better.
The difference between a wind chill cold and a wind fever cold
Lianhua Qing plague is a drug that everyone is more familiar with recently, and during the new crown epidemic, many communities have also issued this drug. Before the new crown, this drug was used for colds, flu that belonged to the wind and heat in Chinese medicine, or heat poison hit the lungs. Such conditions belong to the category of external fever, and can also be used for similar symptoms of the new crown, such as fever or high fever, cold intolerance, muscle soreness, nasal congestion, cough, dry throat and sore throat, red tongue, moss or yellow greasy.

If the confusion is wrong, the consequences are: not only does it not relieve the symptoms, but it may also aggravate the condition.

3, misuse three: regardless of hot cough cold cough, cough to eat pear or Chuanbei loquat dew

Sichuan shellfish stewed sydney pear
Some people may feel that their throat is moist after eating, which is much better; However, some people still cough after eating, and even cough and cough sputum are more serious. Why?
This is because there are also types of cough such as cold cough, hot cough, dry cough and so on. If the drug is not selected correctly, it is likely to aggravate the symptoms and eventually lead to repeated coughs.
When coughing cold, the sputum is thin and white, there is foam, the throat is itchy, there is a phlegm sound between the throats, and it is easy to cough out. This kind of cough is not suitable for using pears, Sichuan shellfish stewed sydney pears, Sichuan shellfish loquat dew and other such drugs, because these drugs are cold and cold, if the wind chill to eat these drugs, may be cold on the cold, not conducive to recovery.
Symptoms of hot cough are characterized by a sore throat, thirst, a coarse cough, frequent and intense cough, hoarse cough, and viscous or yellow sputum. Dry cough is more common in autumn, mainly manifested as dry cough without sputum or less phlegm, sputum sticking into silk, sometimes sputum with blood, the key is not easy to cough out. Sometimes in order to cough up phlegm, the chest is coughed up to a raw pain.
Hot cough and dry cough, you can eat pears, autumn pear paste (Sydney pear paste), Chuanbei loquat dew and other medicines. However, if it is a dry cough + a cold cough at the same time, it is cold and dry, even if you eat pears to stop coughing, you must steam it.
